Question

The lateral area is twice as big as the base area of a cone. If the height of the cone is 9, what is the entire surface area (base area plus lateral area)?

Answer

Lateral Area = LA = π(r)(l) where r = radius of the base and l = slant height

LA = 2B

π(r)(l) = 2π(r2)

rl = 2r2

l = 2r

From the diagram, we can see that r2 + h2 = l2. Since h = 9 and l = 2r, some substitution yields

r2 + 92 = (2r)2

r2 + 81 = 4r2

81 = 3r2

27 = r2

B = π(r2) = 27π

LA = 2B = 2(27π) = 54π

SA = B + LA = 81π

Question

What is the surface area of a cone with a radius of 6 in and a height of 8 in?

Answer

Find the slant height of the cone using the Pythagorean theorem: _r_2 + _h_2 = _s_2 resulting in 62 + 82 = _s_2 leading to _s_2 = 100 or s = 10 in

SA = πrs + πr_2 = π(6)(10) + π(6)2 = 60_π + 36_π_ = 96_π_ in2

60_π_ in2 is the area of the cone without the base.

36_π_ in2 is the area of the base only.

Question

What is the surface area of a cone with a radius of 4 and a height of 3?

Answer

Here we simply need to remember the formula for the surface area of a cone and plug in our values for the radius and height.

$\Pi r^{2} + \Pi r\sqrt{r^{2} + h^{2}}= \Pi\ast 4^{2} + \Pi \ast 4\sqrt{4^{2} + 3^{2}} = 16\Pi + 4\Pi \sqrt{25} = 16\Pi + 20\Pi = 36\Pi$

Question

What is the surface area of a cone with a height of 8 and a base with a radius of 5?

Answer

To find the surface area of a cone we must plug in the appropriate numbers into the equation

$Surface\ Area=\pi r^{2}+\pi rl$

where is the radius of the base, and is the lateral, or slant height of the cone.

First we must find the area of the circle.

To find the area of the circle we plug in our radius into the equation of a circle which is

This yields $A=25\pi$ .

We then need to know the surface area of the cone shape.

To find this we must use our height and our radius to make a right triangle in order to find the lateral height using Pythagorean’s Theorem.

Pythagorean’s Theorem states

Take the radius and height and plug them into the equation as a and b to yield $5^{2}+8^{2}=c^{2}$

First square the numbers $25+64=c^{2}$

After squaring the numbers add them together $89=c^{2}$

Once you have the sum, square root both sides $\sqrt{89}=\sqrt{c^{2}}$

After calculating we find our length is

Then plug the length into the second portion of our surface area equation above to get $(4)(\pi)(9.43)=37.72\pi$

Then add the area of the circle with the conical area to find the surface area of the entire figure $25\pi+37.72\pi=62.72\pi$

The answer is $62.72\pi$ .

Question

Find the surface area of the following half cone.

Answer

The formula for the surface area of the half cone is:

$SA=(base)+\frac{1}{2}(circumference)(slant\ height)+(triangle)$

$SA=\left(\frac{\pi r^2}{2}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{2}\cdot \frac{2\pi r h_s}{2}\right)+rh$

Where is the radius, is the slant height, and is the height of the cone.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height of the cone:

Plugging in our values, we get:

$SA=\left(\frac{\pi (8m)^2}{2}\right)+\left( \frac{\pi (8m) (17m)}{2}\right)+(8m)(15m)$

$SA=32 \pi m^2 + 68 \pi m^2 + 120m^2$

$SA = 100 \pi m^2 + 120 m^2$

Question

You have an empty cylinder with a base diameter of 6 and a height of 10 and you have a cone full of water with a base radius of 3 and a height of 10. If you empty the cone of water into the cylinder, how much volume is left empty in the cylinder?

Answer

Cylinder Volume = $\pir^{2}h$

Cone Volume = $\frac{1}{3}\pir^{2}h$

Cylinder Diameter = 6, therefore Cylinder Radius = 3

Cone Radius = 3

Empty Volume = Cylinder Volume – Cone Volume

$=\pir^{2}h-\frac{1}{3}\pir^{2}h$

$=\pi3^{2}10-\frac{1}{3}\pi3^{2}10$

$=\pi90-\pi30$

$=\pi60$

Question

What is the volume of a right cone with a diameter of 6 cm and a height of 5 cm?

Answer

The general formula is given by $V = 1/3Bh = 1/3\pi r^{2}h$ , where = radius and = height.

The diameter is 6 cm, so the radius is 3 cm.

$V=\frac{\pi 3^2\times 5}{3}=15\pi$

Question

There is a large cone with a radius of 4 meters and height of 18 meters. You can fill the cone with water at a rate of 3 cubic meters every 25 seconds. How long will it take you to fill the cone?

Answer

First we will calculate the volume of the cone

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h=\frac{1}{3}\pi\cdot 4^{2}\cdot 18=96\pi\ m^{3}$

Next we will determine the time it will take to fill that volume

$96\pi \ m^{3}\times \frac{25\ s}{3\ m^{3}}=800\pi \ s$

We will then convert that into minutes

$800\pi \ s\times \frac{1\ minute}{60\ seconds}=13.\overline{3}\pi \ minutes\approx 41.9\ minutes\approx 41\ minutes\ 53\ seconds$

Question

What is the volume of a cone with a height of and a base with a radius of ?

Answer

To find the volume of a cone we must use the equation $V=\frac{1}{3}(A_{base})(H)$ . In this formula, $A_{base}$ is the area of the circular base of the cone, and is the height of the cone.

We must first solve for the area of the base using .

The equation for the area of a circle is $A=\pi(r^{2})$ . Using this, we can adjust our formula and plug in the value of our radius.

$V=\frac{1}{3}(A_{base})(H)=\frac{1}{3}(\pi r^2)(H)=\frac{1}{3}(\pi (13)^2)(H)$

$V=\frac{1}{3}(169\pi)(H)$

Now we can plug in our given height, .

$V=\frac{1}{3}(169\pi)(9)$

Multiply everything out to solve for the volume.

$V=\frac{1}{3}(169\pi)(9)=(169\pi)(3)=507\pi$

The volume of the cone is $507\pi$ .

Question

Find the surface area of the following half-cylinder.

Answer

The formula for the surface area of a half-cylinder must include one-half of the surface area of a cylinder, which would be:

$SA = \frac{1}{2} (lateral\ area + 2 \cdot (base))$

We also need to add the area of the new rectangular face that is created by cutting the cylinder in half. The area of this rectangle would be:

$A=l\times w$

where the length of the rectangle is the same as the height of the half-cylinder, and the width of the rectangle is the same as the diameter of the base of the half-cylinder. So we can rewrite the area of the rectangle as:

$A=h\p\times d$

Now we can combine the two area formulas to find the total surface area of the half-cylinder:

$SA = \frac{1}{2} (2 \pi r (h) + 2 (\pi r^2))+h\cdot d$

$SA = \pi r (h) + \pi r^2+hd$

where is the radius of the base and is the length of the height, and is the diameter of the base.

Plugging in our values, we get:

$SA = \pi (5m) (15m) + \pi (5m)^2+15\cdot 10$

$SA = 75 \pi m^2 + 25 \pi m^2+150 = 150+100 \pi m^2$
