Area of the base is
Area of the cone is pi * r * s, where r is the radius and s the distance from the apex of the cone to the base.
The area of the whole figure then is A =

You are given the value of r, but not of s. You can calculate though because it is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with s and h as its legs. From the Pythagorean theorem,




s = 12

Substitute the values of s and r in the above equation to calculate the area
A =
If you factor the Pi from both terms:
A =
A =
A =
A = 339.28 sq cm
