Question

A conical tent is 3 m high and the radius of its base is 4 m. The slant height of tent is

Answer 1

Answer:

the slant height is 5m

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + b² = c²

3² + 4² = c²

9 + 16 = c²

25 = c²

c = √25

c = 5

* I used pythagorean theorem to find the slant height. I kept 'a' as the height (3m), 'b' as the base (4m) and 'c' as the slant height.
