The height of a solid cone is 12cm and the are of circular base is 64pie cm2. A plane parallel to the base of the cone cuts through the cone 9cm above the vertex of the cone, then area of the base of the cone so formed is?

Answer:
=> 16π cm² or 25π cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Height = 12 cm
Area of the circular base = πr² = 64π cm²
=> π × (√64)² = π × 8²
∴ Radius = 8 cm
∴ Slant height = √(8²+12²) = √(64+144) = √208 = 14.43( approx.)
The new height formed on cutting = 12 - 9 = 3 cm
To obey the Pythagoras' theorem, the base radius must be either 4 or 5 and so must be the slant height.......
∴ Area of the new base = π × 4² or π × 5²
=> 16π cm² or 25π cm²
