Answer:
Height, h = 21 millimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Volume = 8792mm³
Radius = 20 mm
To find the height;
We know that the shape of an anthill is conical in nature.
Mathematically, the volume of a cone is given by the formula;
[tex] V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h[/tex]
Where;
- V is the volume of the cone.
- r is the radius of the base of the cone.
- h is the height of the cone.
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] 8792 = \frac{1}{3} * 3.142*20^{2}*h [/tex]
[tex] 8792 = \frac{1}{3} * 3.142*400*h [/tex]
[tex] 8792 = \frac{1}{3} * 1256.8*h [/tex]
[tex] 8792 = 418.93*h [/tex]
[tex] Height, h = \frac {8792}{418.93}[/tex]
Height, h = 20.99 ≈ 21 mm.
Therefore, the height of the cone is 21 millimeters.
