Help with this question, please!! I don't understand it!

The lateral area is the area of the cone that curves and has the length of 13m.
To calculate the lateral area you do:
π x radius x slant height
so:
π x 4 x 13 = 52π = 163.4m² (L)
To calculate the surface area, you simply add the lateral area with the area of the circular base:
Circular base area = π x radius² so π x 4² = 16π
52π + 16π = 68π = 213.6m² (S)
So the answer is:
L = 163.4m²; S = 213.6m²
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\text{L = 163.4 m}^{2};\text{ S = 213.6 m}^{2}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
d = 8 m
l = 13 m
1. Lateral surface area
The lateral surface area is the side area, excluding that of the base.
The general formula for the lateral surface area L of a cone is
L = πrl
where r represents the radius of the base and l the slant height.
The base is a circle, so
r = d/2 = 8/2 = 4 m
L =π × 4 × 13 = [tex]\boxed{\text{163.4 m}^{2}}[/tex]
2. Total surface area
Total surface area = lateral surface area + area of base
S = L + B
The base is a circle, so
B = πr² = π(4)² = π × 16 = 50.36 m²
S = 163.4 + 50.36 = [tex]\boxed{\text{213.6 m}^{2}}[/tex]
