SSC CGL - 20 July 2023 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q52

The slant height of a cone is 10 cm, and the radius is 6 cm. What is the total surface area of the cone? (Take π = 3.14)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 301.44 cm².

The slant height of a cone (l) = 10 cm, and the radius (r) = 6 cm

The total surface area of the cone = πr(r + l) 

TSA = 3.14 × 6 × (10 + 6)

TSA = 3.14 × 6 × 16 = 301.44 cm2
