  1. Standardized Test Practice EXAMPLE 3 SOLUTION To find the slant height l of the right cone, use the Pythagorean Theorem. l2 = h2+ r 2 Write formula. l2 = 82 + 62 Substitute. l = 10 Find positive square root.

  2. ANSWER The correct answer is B. Standardized Test Practice EXAMPLE 3 Use the formula for the surface area of a right cone. S = πr2 + πrl Formula for surface area of a right cone = π(62) + π(6)(10) Substitute. = 96π Simplify.

  3. The traffic cone can be approximated by a right cone with radius 5.7 inches and height 18inches. Find the approximate lateral area of the traffic cone. Find the lateral area of a cone EXAMPLE 4 TRAFFIC CONE SOLUTION To find the slant height l,use the Pythagorean Theorem. l2 = 182 + (5.7)2, sol≈ 18.9 inches.

  4. ANSWER The lateral area of the traffic cone is about 338.4 square inches. Find the lateral area of a cone EXAMPLE 4 Find the lateral area. Lateral area = πrl Write formula. = π(5.7)(18.9) Substitute known values. ≈ 338.4 Simplify and use a calculator.

  5. 3. Find the lateral area of the right cone shown. ANSWER The lateral area of the right cone is1178yd2 for Examples 3 and 4 GUIDED PRACTICE

  6. 4. Find the surface area of the right cone shown. ANSWER The surface area of the right cone is1885yd2 for Examples 3 and 4 GUIDED PRACTICE
