Surface area of cone is
18 \pi square units

Solution:

Given that cone with a slant height of 7 and a radius of 2

To find: surface area of cone

The surface area of a cone is equal to the curved surface area plus the area of the base

The surface area of cone is given by formula:


S. A=\pi r^(2)+\pi r l

Where "r" is the radius and "l" is the slant height of cone

Substituting r = 2 and l = 7 in above formula,


\begin{array}{l}{S A=\pi\left(r^(2)+r l\right)=\pi\left(2^(2)+2(7)\right)} \\\\ {S A=\pi(4+14)=18 \pi}\end{array}

Thus surface area of cone is
18 \pi square units
