Use the image to answer the question.

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?

Answer 1

To find the radius of the cone, we can use the diameter.

The diameter is marked as 8, so the radius would be half of the diameter.

Therefore, the radius of the cone is 8/2 = 4.
