Debbie,

    Remember Pythagorus and his theory to do with right angled
    triangles? The square of the hypotenuse is the same as the sum of the
    squares of the other two sides. Well Pythagorus or no Pythagorus, the
    hypotenuse is always the longest side of a right angled triangle. The
    length of the side of the cone is essentially the hypotenuse and the
    height of the cone at right angles to the cone's base will always be
    shorter than the length of its side. 

    Sorry, I hope this helps.
