The slant height of a right circular cone is 10 m and its height is 8 m. Find the area of its curved surface.
30 m2
40 m2
60 m2
80 m2
Answer: Option
Explanation:

l = 10 m,

h = 8 m.

So, r = l2 - h2 = (10)2 - 82 = 6 m.

Curved surface area = rl = ( x 6 x 10) m2 = 60 m2.

@Mustafa.

It is a right circular cone. So given details are height 8 cm, slant height 10 cm, we need to find the base length ie the radius, which can be obtained Pythagoras theorem.
