Find the lateral area of a cone with a radius of 7 ft and a slant height of 13 ft. Use 3.14 for pi and round to the nearest tenth
The lateral area of a cone can be found using the formula: Lateral Area = πrs, where r is the radius of the circular base and s is the slant height of the cone.
In this case, the radius (r) is 7 ft and the slant height (s) is 13 ft.
So, the lateral area is:
Lateral Area = 3.14 x 7 x 13
Lateral Area = 286.42 square feet
Rounding to the nearest tenth, the lateral area is 286.4 square feet.
