Answer:There are three dimensions of a cone.
The vertical height (or altitude) which is the perpendicular distance from the top down to the base.
The radius of the circular base
The slant height which is the distance from the top, down the side, to a point on the base circumference.
By applying the Pythagorean Theorem, the slant height is given by the formula:
slant height = √ r 2 + h 2
where r is the base radius and h is the altitude
