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
Let r = 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
=Total surface area of coneCurved surface area
=πr(r+l)πrl
=π×3x(3x+5x)π×3x×5x
=8:5
