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.
