(B) In a right circular cone,the height $(h)$,radius $(r)$,and slant height $(l)$ always form the sides of a right-angled triangle where the slant height is the hypotenuse.
According to the Pythagorean theorem,the relationship is $l^{2} = h^{2} + r^{2}$.
Since this relationship holds true for all right circular cones,the given statement is False.
