ANSWER

[tex]l=5.8cm[/tex]

EXPLANATION

Given;

[tex]\begin{gathered} LSA=587\pi \\ r=32 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Recall the formula for lateral surface area of a cone is;

[tex]LSA=\pi rl[/tex]

Substitute the values and solve;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 587\pi=\pi\times32\times l \\ \frac{587\pi}{\pi}=\frac{32l\pi}{\pi} \\ 587=32l \\ l=\frac{587}{32\pi} \\ =5.8 \\ \cong5.8 \end{gathered}[/tex]
