Question 1117077: The surface area, S, of a cone of radius r and h can be found using the formula S=πr√r^2+h^2. What is the height of this cone?
S= 225 cm^2
r= 5 cm Found 3 solutions by Boreal, Alan3354, ankor@dixie-net.com:Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 225=pi*r (r+sqrt(r^2+h^2)
225=5 pi(5+sqrt(h^2+25)
divide both sides by 5 pi
14.324=5+sqrt(h^2+25)
9.324=sqrt(h^2+25)
86.84=h^2+25, after squaring both sides
61.84=h^2
h=7.86 cm
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the formula . What is the height of this cone?
S= 225 cm^2
r= 5 cm
--------------
Solve for h

Now what?
2 "solutions," 2 different numbers.
You might have to do it, and learn how to do it.
Both of them show you how to do it.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The surface area, S, of a cone of radius r and h can be found using the formula
What is the height of this cone?
S= 225 cm^2
r= 5 cm
:
divide both sides by 5
divide both sides by pi
square both sides
h =
h = 13.43 cm
