Find the area $ A $ of a cone if radius $r = 6$ and slant height $l = 11$.

$A = 102\pi$

STEP 1: find base area $ AB $

To find base area $ AB $ use formula:

$$ AB = r^2 \cdot \pi $$

After substituting $ r = 6 $ we have:

$$ AB = 6^2 \cdot \pi $$ $$ AB = 36 \cdot \pi $$

STEP 2: find Curved Surface Area $ CSA $

To find Curved Surface Area $ CSA $ use formula:

$$ CSA = r \cdot l \cdot \pi$$

After substituting $ r = 6 $ and $ l = 11 $ we have:

$$ CSA = 6 \cdot 11 \cdot \pi$$$$ CSA = 6 \cdot 11 \cdot \pi $$$$ CSA = 66\pi $$

STEP 3: find area $ A $

To find area $ A $ use formula:

$$ A = AB + CSA $$

After substituting $ AB = 36\pi $ and $ CSA = 66\pi $ we have:

$$ A = 36\pi + 66\pi $$ $$ A = 36\pi + 66\pi $$ $$ A = 102\pi $$
