Find curved and total surface area of a conical flask of radius 6 cm and height 8 cm
Answers
Concept:
A cone is a solid three-dimensional geometric object with a circular base and a pointed apex at the top. A cone is made up of one face and one vertex.
Given:
The radius of the conical flask = 6 cm.
The height of the conical flask = 8 cm.
Find:
The curved surface area and total surface area of the conical flask.
Solution:
Slant height l =
Curved surface area =
=
= 188.57 cm².
Total surface area = curved surface area + base area (circle)
= 188.57 +
= 188.57+ 113.14
= 301.57 cm².
Hence, the curved surface area is 188.57 cm² and the total surface area is 301.57 cm².
