Check my answer please, will give medal! Calculate the slant height for the given cone. Round to the nearest tenth. Is it 11.4cm?

Use the Pythagorean theorem. x^2 + y^2 = slant^2 x = 7, y = 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or x = 18, y = 7 solving for slant, that would be sqrt(18^2 + 7^2) = 19.3132

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Don't you have to divide the diameter by two because the triangle is half of the cone?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're right, sorry!
