An illustration shows a right circular cylinder with an axis measuring 5 centimeters and diameter measuring 10 centimeters.

what is the heigh of the cylinder shown?

3 answers

The height of a right circular cylinder is the distance from its base to its top, measured along its axis. In this case, the axis of the cylinder is given to be 5 centimeters, which indicates the height of the cylinder.

Therefore, the height of the cylinder is 5 centimeters.

A cone shows a height marked as 12 and a diameter marked as 8, both indicated with perpendicular dotted lines. The slant height is marked as 10.

what is the radius of the cone?

4
12
10
8

The diameter of the cone is given as 8 cm. To find the radius, we can use the relationship between the radius and diameter of a circle:

\[ \text{Radius} = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} \]

So in this case:

\[ \text{Radius} = \frac{8}{2} = 4 , \text{cm} \]

Thus, the radius of the cone is 4 cm.
