Answer:

24 in

Explanation:

Using the right triangle formed by the height, radius and slant height

Applying Pythagoras' identity

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

h² + 7² = 25²

h² + 49 = 625 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

h² = 576 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = 24
