The radius of a cone (or any circle) is half of its diameter. If the diameter of the base of the cone is 14 inches, you can calculate the radius as follows:
\[
\text{Radius} = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{14 \text{ in}}{2} = 7 \text{ in}
\]
So, the length of the radius is 7 inches.
\[
\text{Radius} = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{14 \text{ in}}{2} = 7 \text{ in}
\]
So, the length of the radius is 7 inches.
