V of cone = (1/3) π r^2 h
37.68 = (1/2) π (1.5)^2 h , I assume the base has a diameter of 3 dm
h = 2(37.68)/(2.25π) = .....
(you are obviously going to use your calculator, so why not use the built-in value of π in your calculator for more accuracy. Btw, don't round off h at this point, keep the value of h in your calculator's memory)
Surface area of cone = πrs, where s is the slant height
so we need s
s^2 = r^2 + h^2
= 1.5^2 + h^2 from above,
so you can find s.
sub into the surface area formula

The base is 3dm? I assume that is the diameter.
Volume=1/3 Base Area*height
height= 3*volume/base area=3*37.68/(PI(3/2)^2)
Surface area=PI*r*sqrt(r^2+h^2)
Volume=1/3 Base Area*height
height= 3*volume/base area=3*37.68/(PI(3/2)^2)
Surface area=PI*r*sqrt(r^2+h^2)
