Each question consists of two statements, namely, Assertion (A) and Reason (R). For selecting the correct answer, use the following code:

Assertion (A): The curved surface area of a cone of base radius 3 cm and height 4 cm is (15π) cm2.


Reason (R): Volume of a cone = πr2h.

Assertion is correct and Reason is Wrong.


Explanation:


Assertion (A):


Given: A cone of radius 3cm and height 4cm.


CSA of the cone is given by: πrl (here r is radius and l is slant height)


l = √(h2 + r2)


Let S be the CSA of the cone


S = πrl = π × r × √(h2 + r2)


S = π × 4 × √(42 + 32) = π × 3 × √(16 + 9) = π × 3 × √(25) = π × 3 × 5 = 15π


S =15π


Reason (R):


Volume of a cone is : πr2h


Assertion is correct and Reason is Wrong.
