      Question

      A right circular cone has a height of 24 cm and a base

      radius of 9 cm. What is the total surface area of the cone, including the base?
      A 594 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 612 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 978 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 625 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Slant height (l) of the cone = √(r² + h²) = √(9² + 24²)  = √(81 + 576) = √657 ≈ 25.61 cm. Total surface area = πr(l + r), Total surface area = π × 9 × (25.61 + 9) = π × 9 × 34.61 = 311.49π ≈ 978 cm².
