Which change will triple the lateral surface area of a cone?

Triple the radius and the slant height.

Triple the height but do not change the radius.


Increase the height and the slant height so that the radius triples.

The answer for this would be the second answer choice
This is because when the slant height is tripled, the overall lateral surface area is tripled
The best way to explain this would be through an example. 

Say that the lateral height is 2 and the radius is 1. The lateral surface area is 6.28

Now, if I make the lateral height 6, which is triple the original lateral height, the lateral surface area becomes 18.84, which is triple the original surface area

Therefore, the answer is choice 2

Hope this helped!! :D

the answer is the second choice because when you increase the height  they would become taller and the cone would be wider
