A cone has a base radius of 3 cm and a slant height of 5 cm. Find h, the perpendicular height of the cone.

I=4 (Slant height)

R=3 (Radius)

H=5 (slant height)

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine inclination, peprendicular height and radius as a triangle, so this will have a 90 degrees angle and Pythagor theorem will imply to the calculations, as :

where Height is A , Radius is B, and Inclination is C we have:

from above we have:

and
