Please help me solve this : two similar cones have corresponding slant height of 8cm and 24cm
A: find the ratio of their areas
The ratio of the linear dimensions is 1:3
Area is a function of the square of the dimensions ---> 1:9
==================================
B: the surface area of the similar cones is 102cm2 calculate the areas of the larger cone
Is that the sum of the 2 areas? Or the smaller?
