A (right circular) cone is cut by a plane parallel to the base of the cone at a distance k below the vertex of the cone and at a distance h above the base of the cone. If the area of the base of the cone is 16 and the area of the circular cross section where the plane intersects the cone (see the figure below), what is the ratio k:h? #SATprep #ACTprep
