The lateral area of a cone is about 226.2 square meters. If the slant height of the cone is 12 meters, what is the surface area to the nearest tenth.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Lateral area = pi*radius * slant height
\n" ); document.write( "226.2=pi*r*12
\n" ); document.write( "226.2/12*pi=r
\n" ); document.write( "r= 59.22 meters
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Total area = lateral area + surface area of base
\n" ); document.write( "Area of base = pi*r^2
\n" ); document.write( "=pi*(59.22)^2
\n" ); document.write( "=11,017.6 m^2
\n" ); document.write( "Add up both the areas to get total surface area.
\n" ); document.write( "226.2+11,017
\n" ); document.write( "...
