To calculate the surface area of a cone, we use the formula:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = \pi r (r + l) \]
where \( r \) is the radius and \( l \) is the slant height (hypotenuse).
Given:
- Radius \( r = 6 \)
- Slant height \( l = 11 \)
- \( \pi \approx 3.14 \)
Now, plug the values into the formula:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = 3.14 \times 6 (6 + 11) \]
Calculating inside the parentheses first:
\[ 6 + 11 = 17 \]
Now substitute back into the formula:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = 3.14 \times 6 \times 17 \]
Now calculate \( 3.14 \times 6 \):
\[ 3.14 \times 6 = 18.84 \]
Next, we multiply this result by 17:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = 18.84 \times 17 \]
Calculating \( 18.84 \times 17 \):
\[ 18.84 \times 17 = 319.28 \]
Finally, rounding to the nearest tenth:
\[ \text{Surface Area} \approx 319.3 \text{ square units} \]
The surface area of the cone is approximately 319.3 square units.
