SSC GD 2019 PYQ — Question 57

SSC GD Constable (English) - 19th Feb 2019 Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q57

A and B are two cones. The curved surface area of A is twice that of B. The slant height of B is twice that of A. What is the ratio of radii of A to B?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 4:1

Let the slant height of cone A be 1 , then slant height of cone B becomes 2

Calculation Formula used

According to question,

(π × r1 × 1)/(π × r2 × 2) = 2/1

r1/r2 = 4/1

Curved Surface area of cone = πrl
