Question
The ratio of the radius to the height of a right cone is 3:4. Then the ratio of total surface area to curved surface of the cone is____.
Options:
A .  2:3
B .  3:5
C .  7:9
D .  8:5
Answer: Option D
:
D
Given that,
r:h = 3:4
Letr = 3x and h = 4x
From the relation
l2=h2+r2,
The Slant height:
l=(3x)2+(4x)2
l=5x
We know that,
Total surface area of cone
=πr(r+l)
Curved surface area of cone
=πrl
Hence, the required ratio
=TotalsurfaceareaofconeCurvedsurfacearea
=πr(r+l)πrl
=π×3x(3x+5x)π×3x×5x
=8:5
