Today, we're going to explore the curved surface area and total surface area of a cone. Can anyone remember what the formula for the curved surface area of a cone is?
Is it πrl?
Correct! Where 'r' is the radius of the base, and 'l' is the slant height of the cone. Now, what about the total surface area?
I think it’s πrl + πr², right?
Exactly! So to remember it, you can think 'curved plus flat' which helps you to recall both areas. Great job, everyone!
Now let's move on to the surface area of a sphere. Does anyone know what the formula is?
Is it 4πr²?
Yes! Remember that '4' is like the number of sides of a square, but for a sphere, it represents the entire surface. Can anyone provide an example of where you might see a sphere in real life?
Like a basketball!
Good example! Every basketball has a surface area that can be calculated using this formula.
Now let's discuss volumes. How do we find the volume of a cone?
It's (1/3)πr²h!
Exactly! And the volume of a sphere? Who can tell me?
It’s (4/3)πr³!
Great! To remember this, think of '4 for sphere' to help distinguish it from the cone volume. Can anyone think of a real-world application for these formulas?
Maybe when designing containers or tanks?
Right on! That’s a perfect example of applied mathematics!

Curved surface area of a cone = πrl
The formula for the curved surface area of a cone involves two key components: the radius (r) of the base of the cone and the slant height (l), which is the diagonal distance from the apex of the cone to the edge of the base. To find the curved surface area, one simply multiplies π (approximately 3.14) by the product of the radius and the slant height. This gives us the area of the cone's outer surface without considering the base.
Imagine a birthday hat shaped like a cone. If you wanted to decorate this hat with wrapping paper, you would need to know how much paper to use for the outer surface. Using the formula for the curved surface area, you can calculate the exact amount of paper required to wrap around the cone to cover its curved surface without including the base.
Total surface area of a right circular cone = πrl + πr², i.e., πr(l + r)
The total surface area of a cone includes both the curved surface area and the area of the base, which is a circle. To find the total surface area, you add the curved surface area (πrl) to the area of the base (πr²). Rearranging gives the simpler formula πr(l + r), which indicates that the total surface area depends on both the slant height and the radius.
Suppose you are making a party hat from stiff paper where the hat not only has the curved part but also a circular base. You want to cover the entire hat in decorative paper, so you need both the curved part's area and the circular base's area to ensure you've covered everything. Using this total surface area formula will help you determine how much decorative paper you need in total.
Surface area of a sphere of radius r = 4πr²
The formula for the surface area of a sphere shows that it is proportional to the square of its radius. This means if you know the radius (the distance from the center to the surface of the sphere), you can calculate the total surface area by squaring the radius (r²), multiplying by 4, and then by π. This formula indicates how much area is covered by the outer surface of a sphere.
Think of a basketball. To paint the entire surface of the basketball, you would need to know its surface area. By measuring the radius of the ball, you could apply this formula to find the surface area, helping you calculate how much paint would be necessary to cover it completely.
Curved surface area of a hemisphere = 2πr²
A hemisphere is half of a sphere. Therefore, the curved surface area of a hemisphere is half of the total surface area of a sphere. This gives us the formula 2πr². This area represents only the curved part, leaving out the flat circular base.
Consider a half of a watermelon which is cut along the equator. The exposed part where you can see the fruit is the curved surface. If you want to know how much fruit you've got visible to eat, you could use the curved surface area formula to estimate how much watermelon you have without counting the flat base.
Total surface area of a hemisphere = 3πr²
The total surface area of a hemisphere includes both the curved surface area (2πr²) and the area of the flat circular base (πr²). When you add these two areas together, you get 3πr². This total area allows for calculations involving both parts of the hemisphere.
Imagine a bowl shaped like a hemisphere filled with ice cream. To know how much material is needed to create the entire bowl—both the curved outside and the flat bottom—you would use the total surface area formula. This helps in understanding how much fabric or material would be required if you were to build or cover the entire bowl.
Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h
The volume of a cone is derived from the fact that it can be thought of as a part of a cylinder. The formula shows that the volume depends on the area of the base (πr²) and the height (h) of the cone. Since a cone occupies one-third the volume of a cylinder with the same base and height, we multiply the base area by 1/3.
If you were to pour sand into a cone-shaped sandcastle, the volume formula helps you figure out how much sand you need. By knowing the radius of the cone's base and its height, you can calculate the total volume of sand required to fill your cone-shaped sandcastle.
Volume of a sphere of radius r = (4/3)πr³
The volume of a sphere indicates the amount of space it occupies. The formula shows that it is proportional to the cube of its radius (r³). The multiplication by (4/3)π reveals that the volume grows rapidly with an increase in radius, reflecting how much more space is enclosed as the sphere gets larger.
Think of a balloon. When you blow air into a balloon, it expands into a spherical shape. The formula for the volume of a sphere helps you understand how much air can be contained within the balloon as it inflates, illustrating the significant increase in volume even with a slight increase in radius.
Volume of a hemisphere = (2/3)πr³
The volume of a hemisphere is half of the volume of a sphere. Therefore, the formula uses the same basic principle as the volume of a sphere, but it divides it by two, giving us (2/3)πr³. This measurement expresses the space contained within just the rounded half of the sphere.
If you picture a half-filled globe, the volume formula helps determine how much water could fit inside that globe if it were cut in half. This understanding is useful in kitchen measurements, gardening, and any situation where you deal with half-spherical shapes.
