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

Answer:

h = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

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

$\sqrt{r^2+h^2}$

34 = $\sqrt{30^2 + h^2}$

$34^2 = 30^2 + h^2$

$1156 = 900 + h^2$

$256 = h^2$

$h = \sqrt{256}$

$h = 16$
