@whpalmer4 help pleases?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Well, how do you compute the lateral surface area of cone A and cylinder B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know :(

OpenStudy (phi):

see this for the lateral surface of a cone http://regentsprep.org/Regents/math/geometry/GG2/ConePage.htm

OpenStudy (phi):

and this for the cylinder http://regentsprep.org/Regents/math/geometry/GG2/CylinderPage.htm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its false

OpenStudy (phi):

why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that was the answer

OpenStudy (phi):

the real answer is the reason you think it's false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i put false taking a guess and it was right

OpenStudy (phi):

OK, but it would be better if you looked at the formulas, and figured out that both objects have the *same* lateral surface.
