Answer:

673.3 cm²  (1 d.p.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area of a Cone

[tex]\sf SA=\pi r \left(r+\sqrt{h^2+r^2}\right)[/tex]

where:

  • r is the radius
  • h is the height perpendicular to the base

Given:

  • r = 8 cm
  • h = 17 cm

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for SA:

[tex]\implies \sf SA=\pi (8) \left(8+\sqrt{17^2+8^2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf SA=\pi (8) \left(8+\sqrt{353}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf SA=\left(64+8\sqrt{353}\right)\pi[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf SA=673.2632668...[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf SA=673.3\:\:cm^2\:(1\:d.p.)[/tex]
