→ Given Question:-
→ If S denotes the area of the curved surface of a right circular cone of height h and semivertical angle (alpha) then S equal to = ?
→ To Find:-
→ S equal to?
→ Solution:-
⇒ s = πrl ,
⇒ r = radius
⇒ = slant height
⇒ h = Height
⇒ Now , = tan α ⇒ r = h tan α
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒ ∴ s = π .h tan α. h sec α = πh² sec α tan α.

Consider a cylindrical element of radius r and slant width dl at a vertical distance of x units and slant distance of l units along the curved surface from the vertex of the right circular cone of height h and semivertical angle α, as shown in the figure.
The curved surface area of the element is,
But in the right triangle ABC,
Then (1) becomes,
Now the total curved surface area of the cone is,
But in the right triangle ADE,
Then (2) becomes,
