<u>Given</u>:
Given that the surface area of the cone is 54 square inches.
We need to determine the surface area of the cone that is similar to the cone three times large.
<u>Surface area of the similar cone:</u>
Let us determine the surface area of the similar cone.
The surface area of the similar cone can be determined by multiplying the surface area of the cone by 3. Because it is given that the similar cone is three times large.
Thus, we have;
Thus, the surface area of the similar cone is 162 square inches.
