Calculate the lateral surface area of a cone with a base radius of 6 cm and a height of 8 cm.

Find the length of the generator. Generator, radius and height make up a right-angled triangle.

l = √ (r ^ 2 + h ^ 2) = √6 ^ 2 + 8 ^ 2 = √100 = 10 cm.

The lateral surface of the cone is equal to S:

Sb = prl, where r is the radius of the circle at the base, l is the generator.

Sb = 3.14 * 6 * 10 = 188.4 cm ^ 2.

Answer: Sb = 188.4 cm ^ 2.
