The ratio of the radii of two right circular cones of same height is 1:3. Find the ratio of their curved surface area when the height of each cone is 3 times the radius of the smaller cone?
Answers
QUESTION :-
The ratio of the radii of two right circular cones of same height is 1:3. Find the ratio of their curved surface area when the height of each cone is 3 times the radius of the smaller cone?
SOLUTION :-
➠We are given that The ratio of the radii of two right circular cones of same height is 1:3.
➠Let the ratio be x
➠So, radius of small cone = x
➠Radius of large cone = 3x
➠Height of both the cones are same .
➠We are given that the height of each cone is 3 times the radius of the smaller cone.
➠So, Height = 3x
➠ (Curve surface area)1= 2πrh
➠ (Curve surface area)1 = 2 * π * 3x * x
➠ .°. (Curve surface area)2 = 2πrh
➠ ( Curve surface area)2 = 2*π*3x *3x
➠.°. ratio of their curve surface area =(Curve surface area)1 / (Curve surface area.)2
➠ 2 * π * 3x * x / 2*π*3x *3x
➠ 3x * x / 3x * 3x
➠ x * x /x * 3x
➠ 1 / 3
.°. ratio of their curve surface area is 1:3.
