A waffle cone is in the shape of a cone with a slant height of 8 inches and a radius of 3 inches a baker wants to know surface area of the cone in order to cover the cone with the melted chocolate what is the surface area of the side of the cone in square inches

The surface area of the side of the cone can be found using the formula for the lateral surface area of a cone, which is given by A = πrs, where r is the radius of the cone and s is the slant height of the cone.

Plugging in the values given, we have:

A = π(3)(8)
= 24π square inches

Thus, the surface area of the side of the cone is 24π square inches.
