Given:
In the given cone,
Radius of the cone = 7.2 m
Slant height of the cone = 17 m
To find:
The surface area of the cone.
Solution:
The surface area of a cone is:
[tex]A=\pi rl+\pi r^2[/tex]
Where, r is the radius of the cone and l is the slant height of the cone.
Putting [tex]\pi=3.14,\ r=7.2,\ l=17[/tex] in the above formula, we get
[tex]A=(3.14)(7.2)(17)+(3.14)(7.2)^2[/tex]
[tex]A=384.336+162.7776[/tex]
[tex]A=547.1136[/tex]
[tex]A\approx 547.11[/tex]
Therefore, the surface area of the given cone is 547.11 square m.
