For Cone \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Lateral Surface Area = ( π * R) * [sqrt(R² + H²)]
\n" ); document.write( "Base Surface Area = π * R^2
\n" ); document.write( "Total Surface Area = Lateral SA + Base SA
\n" ); document.write( "here,\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "r=3 in, and slant height =5in which is same as [sqrt (r^2 + h^2) ]
\n" ); document.write( "Lateral surface area = π * 3)* 5 =(3.14 *3*5) sq in = 47.1 sq in
\n" ); document.write( "Base Surface Area = π *r^2
\n" ); document.write( " = 3.14 * 3*3
\n" ); document.write( " = 28.26 sq in\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Total surface area= Lateral SA + Base SA
\n" ); document.write( " = 47.1 + 28.26
\n" ); document.write( " = 75.36 sq in
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
