A cone with height 8 and radius 2 is sliced halfway along its height by a plane that is parallel to the base of the cone. What is the radius of the circle at the intersection of the plane and the cone?

1 answer

since the slice is halfway from tip to base, the radius is half that of the base.

Consider a side view, and use similar triangles.
