Question:

The curved surface area and the slant height of a right circular cone are 858 cm2 and 13 cm respectively. Find its diameter (in cm).

Options:

42 cm

40 cm

44 cm

41 cm

Correct Answer:

42 cm

Explanation:

The curved surface area of right circular cone = \(\pi \)rl

\(\frac{22}{7}\)× r × 13 = 858

r = \(\frac{858 × 7}{22 × 13}\)

r = 21

Diameter = 2r = 2 × 21 = 42 cm
