The formula for the volume of a cone is V=1/3BH or V=$${\mathtt{\pi}}$$r^2H, in which B equals the area of the base,H is the height of the cone, and r is the radius of the base.
Plugging in the values, we get 294.38=1/3*$${\mathtt{\pi}}$$*56.25*H
To solve for H, isolate the variable by dividing both sides by $${\mathtt{\pi}}$$, 1/3, and 56.25
294.38/(1/3)/$${\mathtt{\pi}}$$/56.25 is approximately 5.
The correct answer would be B, 5cm.
