Simply yahoo image search the mountaint's name to fidn pictures of it, make sure it's http looks like a credible cource, I recommend clicking to the website instead of just getting the image to make sure that it is the right picture.

For all you who answered "Mt. Everest", go back to the definition of a mountain: which is something like "The total displacement from base to peak". Mount Everest is over 29,000 feet above sea level, sitting on a plateau over 21,000 feet above sea level, giving it only 8000 feet displacement. The Island of Hawaii is almost 14,000 feet above sea level sitting on an oceanic plain 18,000 feet below sea level, giving it almost 32,000 feet of displacement. In terms of total cubic rock content, the Island of Hawaii is the largest (and tallest mountain) in the world.

Mt. Everest. Go to nationalgeographic.com and check there. Or in my opinion the best site in the U.S. is the Library of Congress' website at: loc.gov. Post your question there and your answer will magically appear.

If you're calculating in terms of above sea level, then it's Mt. Everest.
If you count as from base to peak, then it's Mauna Kea.
