Solution:  Let the radius r and slant height h of the cone be 3x  cm and 4x cm respectively . 

               Then , 

                         Volume =301. 44cm^3

Rightarrow                     frac13pi r^2h=301.44 cm^3

Rightarrow                     frac13	imes 3.14	imes3x 	imes 3x 	imes 4x =301.44

Rightarrow                    x^3=frac301.443	imes4	imes3.14Rightarrow x^3=frac301.4437.68Rightarrow x=2

	herefore                   r=radius =3x=6cm      and   h=height =4x=8cm

Now , slant height =sqrtr^2+h^2cm=sqrt36+64=10cm
