Question:

If the ratio of the volumes of two cones is 11:16 and the ratio of the radii of their bases is 3:4, then the ratio of their heights will be:

Options:

11 : 9

4 : 11

3 : 16

9 : 11

Correct Answer:

11 : 9

Explanation:

Volume of cone = \(\frac{1}{3}\)\(\Pi \)\( {r }^{2 } \)h

Ratio of volume = 11 : 16

⇒ R  :  H

   3  :  4

   3  :  4

   h1: h2

9 h1 : 16h2 = Volume

⇒ 9 H1 = 11   ,  16 H2 = 16

⇒ H1 = \(\frac{11}{9}\)   H2 = 1

H1 : H2 = 11 : 9
