Algebra.Com's Answer #128133 by colliefan(242)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Area of the base is \n" ); document.write( "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. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The area of the whole figure then is A = \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "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, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "s = 12\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Substitute the values of s and r in the above equation to calculate the area\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A = \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you factor the Pi from both terms: \n" ); document.write( "A = \n" ); document.write( "A = \n" ); document.write( "A = \n" ); document.write( "A = 339.28 sq cm\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
