Question

Not sure how to do this.

Answer 1

200π

Explanation:

Surface area is abbreviated to SA

TOTAL SA of cone = Base area + πrl

Base area = πr² = π x 8² = 64π

Curved SA = πrl = π x 8 x l

to work out l, use pythagoras theorem: √(15)² + (8)² = 17

so, curved SA = π x 8 x 17 = 136π

Total SA of cone = 64π + 136π = 200π
