Use the formulas for the lateral area and the surface area of a cone.
Lateral Area: 354.4 cm^2
Surface Area: 432.9 cm^2
Consider the given solid.
The given solid is a cone. It has a height of 22 centimeters and a diameter of 10 centimeters. The length of the slant height is unknown. Let's first calculate the lateral area and then the surface area.
From the diagram, we know that the diameter of the cone's base is 10. By dividing by 2, we get the radius of the base. r=10/2= 5 Therefore, the radius of the base is 5 centimeters.
Also, we can see a right triangle formed by the height of the cone, the radius of the base, and the slant height.
a= 5, b= 22
