What is the approximate surface area of the larger cone? 1544.4 square yards 978.5 square yards 2,162.3 square yards 1,103.1 square yards
are these spose to be similar cones?
yes
surface area is defined as area of sides and bases right?
area of a circle should already be known or at least heard of the area of a cone i believe is pi r s these sound familiar?
yea
linear measures scale by a common ratio; so 30s=42 when s=7/5 r of the other cone is then 9*7/5
pi r^2 + pi r s given s = 42 and r = 63/5
or pi r (r+s)
sorry but formula of cone is \[A=1/3.\pi.r(r+l)\]
the "formula of a cone" ???
http://math.about.com/od/formulas/ss/surfaceareavol_2.htm i think you might be confusing volume in there someplace
oh sorry. . .
