Answer:

The surface area of each ice cream of the three ice cream is approximately 706.86 cm²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The diameter of the cones = 10 cm

The radius of the cone, r = 5 cm

The assumption of the shape of the capping of the ice cream = Hemisphere

The surface area of an hemisphere = 3·π·r²

The surface area of each ice cream = 3 × π × (5 cm)² ≈ 235.62 cm²

The surface area of each ice cream of the three ice cream = 3 × 235.62 ≈ 706.86 cm²

The surface area of each ice cream of the three ice cream ≈ 706.86 cm².
