Answer: the correct option is
(A) 794.42 in.²
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the surface area of the cone shown in the figure.
We know that
the SURFACE AREA of a cone with height h units and radius r units is given by
![S=\pi r(r+√(h^2+r^2)).](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/cgey9362320sqx7ujb3vd2dgf2oxgoytj0.png)
For the given cone, we have
r = 11 in. and
![h=√(12^2-11^2)=√(144-121)=√(23)=4.8.](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/x0h4a1ggwmh7aftkkdk0jcutaubisr1bn7.png)
Therefore, the surface area of the given cone is
![S\\\\=\pi r(r+√(h^2+r^2))\\\\=3.14*11(11+√(4.8^2+11^2))\\\\=34.54(11+12)\\\\=34.54*23\\\\=794.42.](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/p0dolkugd5ofdmwyotsnj93z0zx08p5x7p.png)
Thus, the required surface area of the given cone is 794.42 in.²
Option (A) is CORRECT.
