Whenever I eat ice cream there’s always one thing that’s on my mind: MATH.  I mean, who doesn’t think about math when they eat ice cream.  While of course ice cream cones are a great snack on a summer day, they also pose some great potential problems for a high school geometry class.  Teachers might use a picture like this to have students solve several problems.  Students could find exactly how much ice cream can actually fit in a cone by finding the volume.  This problem provides a great opportunity for students to do this practically in class too, and enjoy a snack while they do it.  Students might also find compound volumes of cones and sphere’s by putting more ice cream on top of the cone.
