Find the slant height of the cone to the nearest whole number. The cone has a height of 19m, And a radius of 10m Thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

slant height is given by pythagoras theorem h^2 = 19^2 + 10^2 then take sq root

OpenStudy (asadkarim7):

apply Pythagoras's theorem sqrt 19 ^2 - 10^2 16.15 m slant height
