Total Surface Area of Cone

Concept Explanation

Total Surface Area of Cone

Total Surface Area of Cone:

Total surface area of cone = Curved surface area + Area of the base $=pi r^{2}+pi rl$ $=pi r(r+l)$

Illustration: Find the total surface area of a cone, if its slant height is 12 m and the radius of its base is 9 m.

Solution: We know that the total surface area S of a right circular cone of radius r and slant height l is given by S= $large pi rl+pi r^2=pi r(l+r)$ .

Here, r = 9 m and l = 12 m.

Therefore $large dpi{80} large S= pi r(l+r)=frac{22}{7} times 9 times (12 +9)=frac{22}{7} times 9 times 21 = 594m^2$

Illustration: The total surface area of a cone is $=60pi ;cm^{2}.$ If the slant height of the cone be 8 cm, find the radius of the base.

Solution: Given: Area of the curved surface of a cone is $=60pi ;cm^{2}.$ and slant height of the cone = 8 cm

Also, we know that the Total surface area of the cone $=pi r^{2}+pi rl$ $=pi r(r+l)$

$60pi= pi r(r+l)$

$60= r(r+l)$

As l = 8, hence we have

$60= r(r+8)$

$60= r^{2}+8r$

$r^{2}+8r-60=0$

$r=frac{-8pm sqrt{64+240}}{2}$

$r=frac{-8pm sqrt{304}}{2}$

$r=frac{-8pm 4sqrt{19}}{2};cm$

As r cannot be negative, So we must have

$r=frac{-8+ 4sqrt{19}}{2};cm$

Hence, radius of the base is $frac{-8+ 4sqrt{19}}{2};cm$

We started with lot of hope that Abhyas will help in better understnding of complex topics of highers classes. we are not disappointed with the progress our child has made after attending Abhyas. Though need to mention that we expected a lot more. On a scale of 1-10, we would give may be 7.
