Question

What's the lateral area of a cone with a radius of 7 ft and a slant height of 13 ft used 3.14 for pi and round to the nearest ten

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot]

The lateral area of a cone is equal to pi times the radius times the slant height.

3.14 x 7 ft x 13 ft = 270.58 ft²

Rounded to the nearest ten, the lateral area of the cone is 270 ft².

Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find the lateral area of a cone, you need to use the formula: Lateral Area = π * radius * slant height.

In this case, the radius of the cone is given as 7 ft, and the slant height is given as 13 ft.

Using the formula, you can plug in these values to calculate the lateral area:

Lateral Area = 3.14 * 7 ft * 13 ft

Now, multiply 3.14 by 7 to get 21.98 and then multiply the result by 13 to get 285.74.

Since you want to round the answer to the nearest ten, round 285.74 to the nearest ten which is 290.

Thus, the lateral area of the cone is approximately 290 square feet.
