Answer:

58.31 square units

Explanation:

You want the surface area of a cone with height 7 and radius 2.

Area

The surface area of a cone is given by the formula ...

A = πr² +πrs . . . . . . . where r is the radius and s is the slant height

A = πr(r +s)

Slant height

The slant height is found using the Pythagorean theorem:

s² = r² +h²

s = √(2² +7²) = √53

So, the area is ...

A = π(2)(2 +√53) ≈ 58.31 . . . . square units
