  1. The radius of base and slant height of a cone are in the ratio 4 : 7. If its curved surface area is 792 cm², then the radius (in cm) of its base is [Use π = 22/7]
    1. 8
    2. 12
    3. 14
    4. 16
Correct Option: B

Let radius = 4x cm and slant height (l) = 7x cm

∴ πrl =
22
× 4x × 7x = 792
12

⇒ x² =
792 × 7
= 9
22 × 4 × 7

∴ x = 3
∴ Radius = 4 × 3 = 12 cm
