Question

2. The cone has a radius of 30 mm and slant height of 34 mm. What is the height h for this cone?​

Answer 1

h = 16

Explanation:

By applying the Pythagorean Theorem, the slant height is given by the formula:

`√(r^2+h^2)`

34 =
`√(30^2 + h^2)`

`34^2 = 30^2 + h^2`

`1156 = 900 + h^2`

`256 = h^2`

`h = √(256)`

`h = 16`
