Surface Area of Cones Lesson 15
Write the surface area formula for each solid. 1. Prism 2. Cylinder 3. Pyramid 4. Find the surface area of each solid. Use 3.14 for . a. b. 2(LW + WH + LH) 2 π r h + 2 π r 2 Lateral Area + Base Area
Target: Calculate the surface area of cones.
The lateral area (LA) of a cone is equal to one-half the circumference (C) of the base times the slant height (l) of the cone. LA = Cl = πrl
The surface area of a cone is equal to the sum of the lateral area (LA) and the area of the base (B). SA = LA + B SA = πrl + πr 2
Jenny serves snow cones by putting flavored ice in a paper cone-shaped cup. Find the lateral area of the snow cone cup. Use 3.14 for π. Write the formula.LA = πrl Substitute known values.LA ≈ (3.14)(8)(10) Multiply. LA ≈ The lateral area of the snow cone cup is square centimeters.
Find the surface area of the cone. Use 3.14 for π. Find the length of the radius.12 ÷ 2 = 6 Find the area of the base.πr 2 ≈ (3.14)(6) 2 ≈ Write the formula.SA = πrl + B Substitute values.SA ≈ (3.14)(6)(9) + (113.04) Multiply, then add. SA ≈ ≈ The surface area is approximately in 2.
1. The slant height of a cone is 4 feet. The radius of the cone is 3 feet. Use 3.14 for . a) Find the lateral area of the cone. b) Find the surface area of the cone. 2. The lateral area of the cone is mm². Find the length of the radius. Use 3.14 for π.
How is lateral area calculated for a prism, cylinder, pyramid and cone? What is similar about finding the surface area of a cone and a pyramid?
