WAEC - Mathematics (1989 - No. 38)

A sector is cut off from a circle radius 8.2cm to form a cone, if the radius of the resulting cone is 3.5cm, calculate the curved surface area of the cone. [take π = 22/7]
11.25cm2
12.83cm2
22.0cm2
67.2cm2
90.2cm2

Explanation

r = 3.5 cm; l = 8.2 cm.

Curved surface area = \(\pi rl\)

= \(\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{7}{2} \times \frac{41}{5}\)

= 90.2 cm\(^2\)
