What is the surface area of the cone use 3.14 for pi and round to the nearest tenth and necessary 6 and 11

1 answer

The formula for the surface area of a cone is:

A = πr(r + l)

where A is the surface area, π is a constant approximately equal to 3.14, r is the radius of the base, and l is the slant height of the cone.

Given that the radius (r) of the cone is 6 and the slant height (l) is 11, we can substitute these values into the formula to find the surface area.

A = 3.14 * 6(6 + 11)
A = 3.14 * 6(17)
A = 3.14 * 102
A ≈ 319.88

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the surface area of the cone is approximately 319.9 square units.
