    Height = 8 meters

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that

    The volume V = 209 cubic meters Diameter = 10 meters

    Radius r = 5 metres

    How tall is the shed? The question is looking for the height of the cone

    Using the formula for volume of a cone.

    V = 1/3πr^2h

    Where π = 3.14

    209 = 1/3 * 3.14 * 5^2 * h

    209 = 3.14/3 * 25h

    209 = 78.5h/3

    h = 7.99 meters

    h = 8 meters

    Therefore, the shed is 8 meters tall.
