Algebra.Com's Answer #192708 by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! If you triple all dimensions of a cone, will the surface area triple: \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Let's see using the surface area equation: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "---------------------- = \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "---------------------- = \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Factor out 9 in the denominator \n" ); document.write( "9( \n" ); document.write( "---------------------- = \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Cancel out the rest of it, \n" ); document.write( "you end up with 9 times the surface area if you triple the dimensions \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
