For figure refer to attachment:

GIVEN:

Height of a cone is equal to it' s base diameter.

TO FIND:

♠Slant height of the cone.

ANSWER:

Let us take the diameter of the base be 'x'.

So,

Radius of the base of the cone =\dfrac{x}{2}

\large\purple{\boxed{Radius=\dfrac{Diameter}{2}}}

Clearly from the figure slant height of the cone is the hypotenuse of the ABC

Now, in ABC,

\large\green{\boxed{(AC) ^{2}=(AB) ^{2}+(BC) ^{2}}}

(By Pythagoras Theorem)

=>(AC) ^{2}=(AB) ^{2}+(BC) ^{2}

Let AC be l.

=> l^{2}=(x)^{2}+(\dfrac{x}{2}) ^{2}

=> l^{2} = x^{2}+\dfrac{x^{2}}{4}

=>l^{2}= \dfrac{x^{2}+4x^{2}}{4}

=>l^{2}=\dfrac{5x^{2}}{4}

=> l =\sqrt{\dfrac{5x^{2}}{4}}

=> l =\dfrac{\sqrt{5}x}{2}

Therefore slant height of the cone is \dfrac{\sqrt{5}x}{2}
