The slant height can be found using the formula for the lateral surface area of a cone:
Lateral Surface Area = πr * l
where r is the radius and l is the slant height.
Given that the lateral surface area is 16.8π and the radius is 2.4 in, we can plug in these values and solve for l:
16.8π = π(2.4) * l
16.8 = 2.4l
l = 16.8 / 2.4
l = 7
Therefore, the slant height of the cone is 7 inches.
Lateral Surface Area = πr * l
where r is the radius and l is the slant height.
Given that the lateral surface area is 16.8π and the radius is 2.4 in, we can plug in these values and solve for l:
16.8π = π(2.4) * l
16.8 = 2.4l
l = 16.8 / 2.4
l = 7
Therefore, the slant height of the cone is 7 inches.
