SSC CPO 2024 PYQ — Question 118

SSC CPO 2024 - 27th June 2024 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q118

What is the total surface area of a cone whose radius is r4r\over4 and slant height is 4l ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. πr(1+r16)\pi r(1 + {r \over16}). 

We know that,

Total surface area(TSA) of cone = πr(r + l)

Now, According to the question

TSA = π × (r/4) × (r/4 + 4l)

⇒ πr(1+r16)\pi r(1 + {r \over16})

Thus,

TSA of the cone is πr(1+r16)\pi r(1 + {r \over16})
