square root of r^2+h^2
You are pretty much just using the pythag. therom but replacing a and b with radius and height.

How do you find the radius and the slant height of a heap of sand in the shape of cone?
the slant height of a right circular cone is the distance from any point on the circle to the apex of the cone . The slant height of a cone is given by the formula ,√r2+h2 where r is the radius of the circle and h is the height from the center of the circle to the apex of the cone.
How do you find the height of a cone if you have the slant height and the radius?
Assuming it is a right cone, use Pythagoras - slant height = hypotenuse, other two sides = radius of base, and height.
How do you work out the slant height of a cone?
The slant height is the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by the height of the cone and the radius of the base. Use the Pythagorean theorem. The Pythagorean theorem (radius)2 + (perp. height)2 = (slant height)2
