ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
lateral area means the area of sides excluding bases
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes, you're correct.
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
you may use the direct formula :
Lateral Area = \(\large \dfrac{\text{(Perimeter of base)x (Slant height)}}{2}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay, hold on.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
you're given \(\text{Slant height}\) already (=12)
just find the \(\text{perimeter of base}\) and plugin
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got 48
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Correct !
plug that in the formula
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sorry, what is the formula?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I used the lateral area formula to get 48.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(\large \text{perimeter of base} = 8\times 6 = 48\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Lateral Area = \(\large \dfrac{\text{(Perimeter of base)x (Slant height)}}{2} = \dfrac{(48)\times (12)}{2}\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
simplify
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay.

Thanks! Do you have time for another question?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
I'll try, ask...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
use the hint as starting step

So the perimeter of the base is 25 and the height is 24?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
This is a different problem, We're given a hint in the problem... lets use it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Which is find the radius first.
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
|dw:1401504147159:dw|
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
use pythagorean theorem and find the radius \(r\)

This is the formula that I need to use?
A=πr(r+h2+r2)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
kindof, but lets first try and find the radius \(r\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Applying pythagorean theorem in that right triangle gives u :
\(\large r^2 + 24^2 = 25^2\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
solve \(\large r\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
7

OpenStudy (anonymous):
Would it be 7 or -7?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
radius is always positive so \(r = 7\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay.
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Next use below formula :
Surface Area = \(\large \pi r^2 + \pi r l\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(r = 7 \\ l = 25\)

plug them in the formula and evaluate

Wow! Thank you man. I really appreciate it.
