    Question

    The total surface area of a cube is given as 216 cm┬▓.

    The radius of a cone is twice the length of the edge of the cube, and the height of the cone is 16 cm. Calculate the curved surface area of the cone. (take ╧А = 3)
    A 960 sq cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 840 sq cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 600 sq cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 696 sq cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 720 sq cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the edge of the cube be 'a' cm. Then, total surface area of the cube = 6a2 So, 6a2┬а= 216 a = 6 Therefore, radius of the cone = 6 X 2 = 12 cm So, slant height of the cone = тИЪ(radius)┬а2┬а+ (height)┬а2 = тИЪ(162┬а+ 122) = тИЪ400 = 20 cm So, curved surface area of the cone = ╧А X radius X slant height = 3 X 12 X 20 = 720 cm2
