Answer:
Surface area of a cone = πrs + πr2
Volume of a cone = 1/3πr2h.
The slant of a right circle cone can be figured out using the Pythagorean Theorem if you have the height and the radius.
Answers for volume problems should always be in cubic units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the sum:
Use the following formulas:
In case you don't know where those formulas came from:
The first one is obvious; you're just adding <em>n</em> copies of 1, so 1 + 1 + ... + 1 = <em>n</em>.
The second can be proved in this way: let <em>S</em> be the sum 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + <em>n</em>. Rearrange it as <em>S</em> = <em>n</em> + (<em>n</em> - 1) + (<em>n</em> - 2) + ... + 1. Then 2<em>S</em> = (<em>n</em> + 1) + (<em>n</em> + 1) + (<em>n</em> + 1) + ... + (<em>n</em> + 1), or <em>n</em> copies of <em>n</em> + 1. So 2<em>S</em> = <em>n</em>(<em>n</em> + 1). Divide both sides by 2 and we're done.
