To determine the radius of the cone, we need to use the information given in the image. In this case, we know the diameter of the cone is marked as 8. The diameter is the distance across the widest part of the circular base of the cone.
To find the radius, we can use the formula: radius = diameter/2.
Using this formula, we can calculate the radius of the cone as:
radius = 8/2 = 4.
Therefore, the radius of the cone is 4.
