Answer 1

To find the slant height or edge length of the ice cream cone, the two most appropriate responses are:

1. Drop the height inside the cone and then use a² + b² = c² where c would be the slant height of the cone.
   This approach uses the Pythagorean theorem, where one leg is the height of the cone, the other leg is the radius, and the hypotenuse is the slant height.

2. Use the volume of a cone formula with r = 1 and h = 5.
   While this specifically calculates the volume of the cone, knowing the volume can help verify height or other properties related to the cone's geometry.

These two methods are the most relevant to finding the slant height or edge length of the cone.
