The height of glass 1 which in cylindrical in shape is 7.6 centimeters. Since the total volume of water added by Celia is 100 cubic centimeter, and the volume of glass 2 is 26.4 cubic centimeter which is a conical in shape. Subtracting the volume of glass 2 from the total volume glass 1 can be calculated and its height.
