Slant height of cone, l = 14 cm
Let the radius of the cone be r.
(i) We know, CSA of cone = πrl
Given: Curved surface area of a cone is 308 cm2
(308 ) = (22/7) × r × 14
308 = 44 r
r = 308/44 = 7
Radius of a cone base is 7 cm.
(ii) Total surface area of cone = CSA of cone + Area of base (πr2)
Total surface area of cone = 308 + (22/7) × 72
= 308 + 154
Therefore, the total surface area of the cone is 462 cm2.
