  2. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    The slant height of a right circular cone is the distance from any point on the circle of its base to the apex via a line segment along the surface of the cone. It is given by r 2 + h 2 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {r^{2}+h^{2}}}} , where r {\displaystyle r} is the radius of the base and h {\displaystyle h} is the height.

  3. Square pyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_pyramid

    The slant height of a right square pyramid is defined as the height of one of its isosceles triangles. It can be obtained via the Pythagorean theorem : s = b 2 − l 2 4 , {\displaystyle s={\sqrt {b^{2}-{\frac {l^{2}}{4}}}},} where l {\displaystyle l} is the length of the triangle's base, also one of the square's edges, and b {\displaystyle b ...

  4. Pyramid (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_(geometry)

    The pyramid's height is the distance of the peak from the plane. This construction gets generalized to n dimensions. The base becomes a (n − 1)-polytope in a (n − 1)-dimensional hyperplane. A point called the apex is located outside the hyperplane and gets connected to all the vertices of the polytope and the distance of the apex from the ...

    Greek: the ridge height is 1 ⁄ 9 to 1 ⁄ 7 the span (an angle of 12.5° to 16°); Roman: the ridge height is 2 ⁄ 9 to 13 the span (an angle of 24° to 34°); Common: the rafter length is 3 ⁄ 4 the span (about 48°); Gothic: the rafters equal the span (60°); and; Elizabethan: the rafters are longer than the span (more than 60°).

    By using the identity a 3 − b 3 = (a − b)(a 2 + ab + b 2), one gets: = + +, where h 1 − h 2 = h is the height of the frustum. Distributing and substituting from its definition, the Heronian mean of areas B 1 and B 2 is obtained:
