A waffle cone is in the shape of a cone with a slant height of 8 inches and a radius of 3 inches a baker wants to know surface area of the cone in order to cover the cone with the melted chocolate what is the surface area of the side of the cone in square inches use 3.14 for pi nearest hundredth

To find the surface area of the side of the cone, we need to find the lateral area of the cone.

The lateral area is given by the formula: lateral area = π * r * l, where r is the radius and l is the slant height.
Plugging in the values given, we have: lateral area = 3.14 * 3 * 8 = 75.36 square inches.
Therefore, the surface area of the side of the cone is 75.36 square inches.
