Answer:


A=301.71\ \text{inches}^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of a cone, r = 6 inches

The slant height of the cone, l = 10 inches

We need to find the total surface area of the cone. It is given by :


A=\pi rl+\pi r^2

Substituting all the values,


A=\pi r(l+ r)\\\\A=(22)/(7)* 6* (10+ 6)\\\\A=301.71\ \text{inches}^2

So, the total surface area of the cone is
301.71\ \text{inches}^2.
