Neither person is correct. The surface area of a cone cannot be determined solely based on the measurements of inches or miles. The surface area of a cone is calculated using the formula S = πr(r + l), where S is the surface area, r is the radius of the base, and l is the slant height of the cone. To calculate the surface area accurately, both the radius and slant height of the cone are needed.
