To calculate the length of the cone, we need to find the slant height. The slant height can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.

The formula is:

Slant height = √(height^2 + side^2)

Plugging in the given values:
Slant height = √(6^2 + 4^2)
Slant height = √(36 + 16)
Slant height = √52
Slant height ≈ 7.211

Therefore, the length of the cone is approximately 7.211 cm.
