\n" ); document.write( "The lateral surface area of a cone is \"%28pi%29%28r%29%28l%29\" where l is the slant height. For this cone, that is \"%28pi%29%283%29%286%29+=+18pi\".

\n" ); document.write( "The height of the cone is found as the other leg of a right triangle with one leg 3 and hypotenuse 6. That gives us \"h+=+3%2Asqrt%283%29\".

\n" ); document.write( "After the cone is cut into four identical pieces, the total surface area of one piece includes...
\n" ); document.write( "(1) one-quarter of the area of the base of the cone;
\n" ); document.write( "(2) one-quarter of the lateral surface area of the cone; and
\n" ); document.write( "(3) two right triangular faces with legs 3 and 3*sqrt(3).

\n" ); document.write( "Do the calculations for one piece and multiply the total times 4....
