$(\begin{array}{l} 4r = h + \sqrt {{r^2} + {h^2}} \\ \Rightarrow 4{\rm{r}} - {\rm{h}} = \sqrt {{r^2} + {h^2}} \end{array})$

Squaring both sides, we get

16r2 + h2 – 8rh = r2 + h2

⇒ 15r2 – 8rh = 0

⇒ r(15r – 8h) = 0

? r ≠ 0

∴ 15r – 8h = 0

$(\Rightarrow \frac{{\rm{r}}}{{\rm{h}}} = \frac{8}{{15}})$

∴ r2 : h2 = 64 : 225
