calculate the cone 1

problem 1:


A cone has a radius of 8 cm and an height of 11 cm.
a) calculate the lenght of the slent
b) calculate the surface area
c) calculate the volume

 

answer:


a) length of the slant:

s = √r² + h²

s = √(8² + 11²)

s = 13.6 cm

A: The length of the slant is 13.6 cm.

 

b) surface area:

A =  r² * π + r * π * s

A = 8² * π + 8 * π * 13.6

A = 542.87 cm²

A: The surface area is 542.87 cm².

 

c) volume:

V = r² * π  * h : 3

V = 8² * π * 11 : 3    (π = 3.1415..)

V = 737.23 cm³

A: The volume is 737.23 cm³.
