The total surface area of a right circular cone of slant height 20cm is 384πcm2.
Calculate: (i) its radius in cm;
(ii) its volume in cm3, in terms of π.
T.S.A. =πr2+πrl=384π cm2⟹π(r2+r×20)=384π⟹r2+20r−384=0
⟹r=12,−32
Considering the value r=12 cm as radius cannot be negative.
Volume =π3r2h
=π3×122×16
=2412.7 cm3
