Answer:
Therefore, The required lateral surface of the cone is 15π inches²
Explanation:
The slant height of the cone is given to be 5 inches
The radius of base of the cone is given to be 3 inches
We need to find the lateral surface area i=of the cone
The lateral surface area of the cone is given by the formula :
Lateral surface area = π × radius × slant height
⇒ Lateral surface area = π × 3 × 5
⇒ Lateral surface area = 15π inches²
Therefore, The required lateral surface of the cone is 15π inches²
