Question

Please help im so confused!!??

Answer 1

The formula for the surface area of a cone is SA=(pi)(r^2)+(pi)(r)(l)

L is the slant height of the cone.
Because pi is in the answer choices, there is no need to multiply either by pi so the new formula becomes
SA=r^2+(r)(l)
Now you just plug in what you know
Sa=(8^2) + (8)(15)
Sa=64+120
Sa=184(pi)

*dont forget to put the pi back in since you took it out in the beginning of the equation*

Your answer is A.

Hope this helps :)
