Answer:

13 cm

Explanation:

To find the answer, you can use the formula to calculate the volume of a cone and isolate the height:

V= πr^2
(h)/(3)

V= volume= 218 cubic centimeters

π= 3.14

r= radius= 4 cm

h=height

218= 3.14*4^2*
(h)/(3)

218*3=3.14*16*h

654=50.24*h

h=654/50.24

h=13

According to this, the height of the container is 13 cm.
