The ratio of the height of the cone to the height of the cylinder is 3 to 1

The ratio of the height of the cone to the radius of the sphere is 4 to 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to know the volume of a cylinder, a cone and a sphere:

V_cylinder = pi*r^2*h

V_cone = (1/3) * pi*r^2*h

V_sphere = (4/3) * pi*r^3

If they have the same volume:

The ratio of the height of the cone to the height of the cylinder is:

V_cone / V_cylinder = 1

(1/3) * pi*r^2*h1 / pi*r^2*h2 = 1

(1/3) * h1 = h2

h1 / h2 = 3

So the ratio is 3 to 1

The ratio of the height of the cone to the radius of the sphere is:

V_cone / V_sphere = 1

(1/3) * pi*r^2*h / (4/3) * pi*r^3 = 1

h / 4r = 1

h / r = 4

So the ratio is 4 to 1
