I don’t have the cone’s height or radius (or the full problem/diagram), so I can’t pick one of those choices yet.
How to get the slant height:
- If you know the radius r and the vertical height h, the slant height l = sqrt(r^2 + h^2) (Pythagorean Theorem).
- If you only know the volume V and one of r or h, use V = (1/3)πr^2 h to solve for the missing r or h, then use the Pythagorean formula above.
If you paste the cone’s height and radius (or the volume plus one of those), I’ll compute the slant height and pick the correct choice.
