What are the lateral area and the surface area of the cone shown below? Round the answer to the nearest tenth. The figure is not drawn to scale.
A. LA=829.4FT^2;SA=1,209.5FT^2
B. LA=829.4FT^2;SA=3,041.1FT^2
C. LA=380.1FT^2;SA=1,209.5FT^2
D. LA=380.1FT^2;SA=3,041.1FT^2

Same with the first cone except they give you r and l, you need to find h.
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for h, then use the equation for a cone to solve for the LA and SA.
r = 11 feet
l = 24 feet
\[r^{2} + h^{2} = l^{2}\]
\[SA = \pi r ^{2} + \pi r l\]
\[LA = \pi r l\]
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
11^2+H^2=24^2
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
121+H^2=576
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
-121

H^2=455
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes, now take the square root to find h.
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
21.3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes that's correct
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
WHATS THE NEXT STEP

now you have r, h, and l.
You are asked to find SA and LA.
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
HOW DO I DO THAT?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Use the SA and LA equations.
\[SA = \pi r^{2} + \pi r l\]
\[LA = \pi r l\]
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
ok so pi(11)+pi(11)l
OpenStudy (anonymous):
don't forget to square the r for the area of the circle

sorry forgot square the r?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
pi (11) ^2 + pi (11) l
OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):
379.94+34.54 l
OpenStudy (anonymous):
multiply 34.54 by your value for l
OpenStudy (anonymous):
L is 24
