The curved surface area of a right circular cone is 44 cm². If the slant height of the cone is 7 cm, then find the radius of its base. [Use π = $\frac{22}{7}$]

2 cm

We know that,

Curved surface area = πrl

We have,

Slant height of cone(l) = 7 cm

Curved surface area of a right circular cone = 44.

According to the question,

The curved surface area of the cone = πrl = 44 =  22/7 × 7 × r

= r = 2
