The correct Answer is:
To find the height of the cone when it is melted and recast into a cylinder of the same radius and height, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Problem**: We know that the volume of the cone will equal the volume of the cylinder since the cone is melted and recast into the cylinder. 2. **Write the Volume Formulas**: - The volume \( V \) of a cone is given by the formula: \[ V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h_1 \] - The volume \( V \) of a cylinder is given by the formula: \[ V_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi r^2 h_2 \] 3. **Set the Volumes Equal**: Since the volumes are equal, we can write: \[ \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h_1 = \pi r^2 h_2 \] 4. **Cancel Common Terms**: We can cancel \( \pi \) and \( r^2 \) from both sides (assuming \( r \neq 0 \)): \[ \frac{1}{3} h_1 = h_2 \] 5. **Substitute the Height of the Cylinder**: We know from the problem that the height of the cylinder \( h_2 \) is 9 cm: \[ \frac{1}{3} h_1 = 9 \] 6. **Solve for the Height of the Cone**: To find \( h_1 \), multiply both sides by 3: \[ h_1 = 9 \times 3 = 27 \text{ cm} \] 7. **Conclusion**: The height of the cone is \( 27 \) cm. ### Final Answer: The height of the cone is **27 cm**.
