Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll call height h.

The equations of a cone and sphere are:

Cones: 1/3 * base area * h

Spheres: 4/3 π * r³

The base area of a cone would be the area of a circle equation:

π * r² = π * 2² = 4π.

Because you're converting from sphere to cone, you would set their equations equal to each other.

1/3 * 4π * h = 4/3 π * 5³

Next, isolate h.

h = (4/3 π * 5³)/(1/3 * 4π)

h = 125

Hope this helps!
