Question:

What is the area of the curved surface of a right circular cone with height 8 m and slant height 10 m ?

Options:

60 m2

60π m2

40 m2

40π m2

Correct Answer:

60π m2

Explanation:

We know that,

CSA = πrl        

l2 = h2 + r2

l = 10 cm

h = 8 cm

According to the question,

= r2 + 82 = 102

= r2 = 100 – 64 = 36

= r = 6

CSA = πrl = π × 6 × 10 = 60π m2
