If you unfurl the lateral "face" of a cone, you get the sector of a circle whose central angle subtends an arc with length L equal to the circumference of the cone's base, and a radius equal to the slant height s of the cone.

Since the diameter of the base is 18m, the circumference of the base is about 3.14\times18=56.52 meters, so this is the value of L.

You're given a slant height of s=15 meters.

Now, the following proportional relation holds for any circle:

\dfrac{\text{area of sector}}{\text{area of circle}}=\dfrac{\text{arc length of sector}}{\text{circumference of circle}}

This translates to

\dfrac A{\pi\times s9^2}=\dfrac s{2\pi s\times9}

(remember, we're talking about a sector of a circle with radius s and arc length 18\pi). Solving for A:

\dfrac A{81\times3.14}=\dfrac{15}{18\times15\times3.14}
A=\dfrac92=4.5

So the area of the lateral face is approximately 4.5 square meters.

avanturin [10]
Answer: 243

Third term of g.p. = ar^2 =3

General term = ar^n-1

Product of first five terms
= a^5 x r^0+1+2+3+4
= a^5 x r^10
= (ar^2)^5
=(3)^5
= 243
