Question:

Find the curved surface area of a cone whose radius of base is 7 cm and slant height is 8 cm. [Use π = $\frac{22}{7}$]

Options:

132 cm2

198 cm2

154 cm2

176 cm2

Correct Answer:

176 cm2

Explanation:

We know that,

Curved surface area = πrl

We have,

Radius of cone = r = 7 cm

Slant height of cone = l = 8 cm

Curved surface area of cone  = \(\frac{22}{7}\)  × 7 × 8 = 176 cm2
