Explain in Detail :Curved Surface Area of a Right Circular Cone
Curved surface area of a right circular cone is the sum of the areas of the lateral surface and the base. The lateral surface is the curved surface of the cone that is not the base. The base is the flat surface at the bottom of the cone.
The equation for the curved surface area of a right circular cone is A = \pi r^2 + \pi h r.
r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cone.
What is the total surface area of the cone? (cone TSA/ TSA of cone)
The total surface area of the cone is 108.5 square inches.
Examples (Surface Area of cone Questions and Answers)
1. What is the surface area of a cone with a radius of 5 cm and a height of 10 cm?
The surface area of a cone is equal to the area of the base multiplied by the height.
The base of the cone is a circle with a radius of 5 cm. The height of the cone is 10 cm.
The surface area of the cone is equal to (5 cm)(10 cm) = 50 cm².
Other Facts/Formulae
-A perfect square is a number that is the square of another number.
-The sum of two consecutive squares is always a perfect square.
-A perfect square can be written as the product of two integers, the square root of the product, or the sum of the squares of the two integers.
