Volume of a cone is 1212 cm3 and its height is 24cm. Find the surface area of the cone.
(π = 22/7)
Given: Volume of cone (V) = 1212 cm3
Height of cone (h) = 24 cm
We know the formula of volume of cone,
Volume = πr2h /3
⇒ 3V = πr2h
⇒ r2 = ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ r2 = 48.20 …(i)
⇒ r = √48.20 = 6.94
⇒ r ≈ 7 …(ii)
We know,
l = √(r2 + h2)
⇒ l = √(48.20 + 242) [from (i)]
⇒ l = √(48.20 + 576)
⇒ l = 24.98
⇒ l ≈ 25 …(iii)
⇒ Slant height of cone is 25 cm.
Curved surface area of cone is given by,
CSA = πrl
⇒
[from (ii) and (iii)]
⇒ CSA = 550 …(iv)
Thus, curved surface area of cone is 550 cm2.
