Determine the slant height, h, of the cone. Round your answer to the nearest
tenths of a centimeter.
17 cm
8 cm

Answer 1

Answer: 18.8cm

Explanation:

Your gonna use the equation (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2), then you want to square root the number you get.

So (17*17)+(8*8)= 353

So then square root of 353 is 18.8
