Discussion Forum : Volume and Surface Area - General Questions (Q.No. 1)
1.
A right triangle with sides 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm is rotated the side of 3 cm to form a cone. The volume of the cone so formed is:
12 cm3
15 cm3
16 cm3
20 cm3
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Clearly, we have r = 3 cm and h = 4 cm.

Volume = 1 r2h = 1 x x 32 x 4 cm3 = 12 cm3.

How deside 3 cm are base?

Red Anca said:   7 years ago
I think the h=3 due to the problem rotated about 3cm..and the base or raduis will be r=4cm,

We can redirect to the formula;
V=1/3 * 3.141592654 * r'2 * h,
V=1/3 * 3.141592654 * 4'2 * 3.
V = 50.26 cm'3.

A cone can be rotated and formed from a triangle by considering the base. Rotate the 4cm angle to the base and proceed.

If we rotate the angle from side of 4 cm thn what will be perpendicular?

DEV RAJ said:   8 years ago
Right triangle is rotated on the axis at 90*, the side of 3 cm is rotated along the axis so diameter is 6 and are = 3.

It is given, if we are rotating on the side 3cm it must be base "see the diagram".

If base radius of a cone is increased by 20% and its slant height is made double then by how much percent will the area of its curved surface be increased?

a) 140% b) 110% c) 120% d) 130%
