14 The diagram shows a cylinder and a cone.

The cylinder has radius 2 cm and height 9 cm.
The cone has radius \(r\) cm and height \(h\) cm.
The ratio \(r : h\) is 1 : 4.
The volume of the cone is equal to the volume of the cylinder.
Work out the value of \(\boldsymbol{r}\).
[The volume \(V\) of a cone with radius \(r\) and height \(h\) is \(V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h\).] [5]
