  1. The base of a cone and a cylinder have the same radius 6 cm. They have also the same height 8 cm. The ratio of the curved surface of the cylinder to that of the cone is ?
    1. 4 : 3
    2. 5 : 3
    3. 8 : 5
    4. 8 : 3
Correct Option: C

Ratio of curved surface area of cylinder and cone = [2πrh] / [πr√h2 + r2]
= [2 x 6 x 8] / [6 x √62 + 82]
= 96/(6 x 10) = 96/60 = 8/5 = 8 : 5
