A cylinder and a cone have the same volume. The cylinder has radius x and height y. The cone has radius 2x. Find the height of t
weqwewe [10]
V(cylinder)=πR²H
Radius of the cylinder R=x, height of the cylinder H=y.
We can write for the cylinder
V(cylinder)=πx²y

V(cone) =(1/3)πr²h
Radius of the cone r=2x.
We can write for the cone
V(cone)= (1/3)π(2x)²h=(1/3)π *4*x²h

V(cylinder) =V(cone)
πx²y=(1/3)π *4*x²h
y=(4/3)*h
h=(3/4)*y
