  1. The radius and the height of a cone are in the ratio 4 : 3. The ratio of the curved surface area and total surface area of the cone is
    1. 5 : 9
    2. 3 : 7
    3. 5 : 4
    4. 16 : 9
Correct Option: A

r
=
4
r
=
h
= k
h343

⇒ r = 4k; h = 3k
∴ l = √r² + k² = √16k² + 3k²
= √25k² = 5k
Curved surface area
Total surface area

=
πrl
πr(r + l)

=
l
=
5k
=
5
r + l4k + 5k9

or 5 : 9
