How do you calculate this a right circular cone is inscribed in a hemisphere so that base of cone coincides with base of hemisphere what is the ratio of the height of cone to radius of hemisphere?

Suppose the radius of the sphere is R.
The base of the cone is the same as the base of the hemisphere so the radius of the base of the cone is also R.
The apex of the cone is on the surface of the hemisphere above the centre of the base. That is, it is at the "North pole" position. So the height of the cone is also the radius of the sphere = R.
So the ratio is 1.

How does an architect use pi?
To calculate the area/circumference of a circle when designing something circular with a limited amount of material. i.e. you have to design a bronze circle and only have 27 sq ft of bronze. You have to calculate the circumference to see if you need to make the circle smaller or not.
How do I calculate the Volume of a cylinder in milliliters?
Assuming a circular cylinder, you use the formula pi x radius squared x height. The answer will be in cubic units, for example, cubic millimeters.
A circular mat has a diameter of 20cm find its radius hence calculate the area of the mat use the value 3.14 for pie?
3.14*102 = 314 square centimeters
What geometric solid has two circular bases?
A cylinder is a geometric solid with two circular bases.

A cone
How do you calculate this- a right circular cone is inscribed in a hemisphere so that base of cone coincides with base of hemisphere what is the ratio of the height of cone to radius of hemisphere?
The vertex of the cone would reach the very top of the sphere, so the height of the cone would be the same as the radius of the sphere. Therefore the ratio is 1:1, no calculation is necessary.
Can an equilateral triangle be circular?
