A cylinder and a cone have the same volume. The cylinder has radius x and height y. The cone has radius 1/3x. Find the height of the cone in terms of y.

x^2*pi*y is the volume of the cylinder. 

(1/3x)^2*(ay)/3 is the volune of the cone. 

Set them equal to each other and find what a is.

Height of a cylinder = y

 

Height of a cone = 27y

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The height of a cylinder     y = V / r2pi

The height of a cone        (n)y = 3V / (r / 3)2pi

 

                                      (n)y / y = [3V / (r / 3)2pi] / (V / r2pi) = 27

 

The height of a cone = 27y
