To find the height of the cone, we can use the formula for the lateral surface area of a cone:

Lateral surface area = πr*l

Where r is the radius of the base of the cone and l is the slant height of the cone. We can calculate the slant height using the Pythagorean theorem:

l^2 = r^2 + h^2

Given that the radius of the base of the cone is 10 cm and the slant height is 13 cm, we can plug in these values into the formula:

13^2 = 10^2 + h^2
169 = 100 + h^2
69 = h^2
h ≈ 8.31 cm

Therefore, the height of the cone is approximately 8.31 cm.
Thats wrong

I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation:

Given:
Radius, r = 10 cm
Slant height, l = 13 cm

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

l^2 = r^2 + h^2
13^2 = 10^2 + h^2
169 = 100 + h^2
h^2 = 169 - 100
h^2 = 69
h = √69
h ≈ 8.31 cm

Therefore, the correct height of the cone is approximately 8.31 cm. Thank you for pointing out the error.
