Answer:

8 Units

Explanation:

The volume of a cone can be calculated using the formula:

V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h

where V is the volume, π is pi, r is the radius, and h is the height of the cone. We are given the volume and the diameter, so we can use the diameter to find the radius:

d = 2r

14 = 2r

r = 7

Now we can substitute the values for the volume and radius into the formula and solve for the height:

V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h

1230.88 = (1/3) * 3.14 * 7^2 * h

1230.88 = (1/3) * 3.14 * 49 * h

1230.88 = (49/3) * 3.14 * h

1230.88 = 153.86 * h

h = 1230.88 / 153.86

h = 8

So, the height of the cone is approximately 8 units
