      Question

      The lateral area is thrice as big as the base area of a

      solid cone. If the diameter of the solid cone is 1 meter, then what is the total surface area of solid cone?
      A 8Ï€ Sq. m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 2Ï€ Sq. m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C π Sq. m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 4Ï€ Sq. m. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Diameter of the cone is 1 meter ⇒ Radius of the cone (r) = 1/2 meter Area of the base of the cone = π(1/2)2 = π/4 Sq. m. The lateral area is thrice as big as the base area ⇒ Lateral area of the cone is 3π/4 Sq. m. Total surface area of the cone = π/4 + 3π/4 ⇒ π Sq. m. ∴ The total surface area of the solid cone is π Sq. m.
