Answer:
As Per Provided Information
- Lateral area of cone is 9.81 in
- Radius of cone is 1.4 in
We have been asked to determine the slant height of the cone .
Formula used to calculate the lateral area of a cone is
[tex] \boxed{\bf \: \purple{ Lateral \: Area _{(Cone)} \: = \pi\:rl}}[/tex]
here
l denote slant height
r denote radius
Substituting the value we obtain
[tex] \longrightarrow\tt \: 9.81 = 3.14 \times 1.4 \times l \\ \\ \\ \longrightarrow\tt \:9.81 = 4.396 \times l \\ \\ \\ \longrightarrow\tt \: \cfrac{9.81}{4.396} = l \\ \\ \\ \longrightarrow\tt \: \: l \: = \cfrac{9.81}{4.396} \\ \\ \\ \longrightarrow\tt \: \: l \: = \cancel\cfrac{9.81}{4.396} \\ \\ \\ \longrightarrow\tt \: \: l \: = 2.23 \:inch \: \: (approx)[/tex]
Therefore,
- Slant height of the cone is 2.23 in .
