Answer:

65.94 square inches

Explanation:

Surface area of a cone=πr(r+√h^2+r^2)

π=3.14

r=diameter/2

=14/2

=7 in

h=?

h=a

To find h using Pythagoras theorem

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

14^2 = a^2 + 7^2

14^2 - 7^2= a^2

196-49=a^2

147=a^2

Square root both sides

√147=√a^2

12.12=a

a=12.12 in

Surface area of a cone=πr(r+√h^2+r^2)

=3.14(7+√12.12^2+7^2)

=3.14(7+√147+49)

=3.14(7+√196)

=3.14(7+14)

=3.14(21)

=65.94 square inches
