Detailed Solution

Let's consider a frustum with height h and smaller radius r and bigger radius R
Question ImageWe are given the area of the bigger circle to 12πm m 2  .
We know that the area of circle is given by π r 2  sq. units
Therefore
Area of bigger circle =π R 2  sq. units
12π=π R 2 12= R 2 ..............(1)  
We are given that the curved surface area of the frustum is  25πm m 2  
We know that the curved surface area of a frustum is given by π(r+R)h   sq. units.
π(r+R)h=25π (r+R)h=25..............(2)  
We are given that the total surface area is  350πm m 2  .
We know that the total surface area of a frustum is given by
π (r+R)h+ r 2 + R 2  square units
π (r+R)h+ r 2 + R 2 =350π (r+R)h+ r 2 + R 2 =350  
Substitute the values from equation (1) and (2) we get
25+ r 2 +12 =350 37+ r 2 =350 r 2 =35037 r 2 =313  
Therefore
Area of smaller circle =313m m 2
