Answer:

The correct option is C. The height of the cylinder is 9 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of cone is 12 cm and the height of cone is 12 cm.

The volume of cone is

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

$V_1=\frac{1}{3}\pi (12)^2(12)$

$V_1=576\pi$

The radius of cylinder is 8 cm. The volume of cylinder is

$V=\pi r^2h$

$V_2=\pi (8)^2h$

$V_2=64\pi h$

It is given that the volume of cone and cylinder is same.

$V_1=V_2$

$576\pi=64\pi h$

$\frac{576\pi}{64\pi}=h$

$9=h$

Therefore the height of the cylinder is 9 cm and option C is correct.
