The height of a cone is equal to the height of a cylinder. The curved surface area of the cylinder is 616 cm2 and the height of the cylinder is two times of the its radius. The radius of the cone is 50% of the radius of the cylinder.

Quantity I: Find the difference between total surface area and curved surface area of the cylinder.

Quantity II: Find the curved surface area of the cone.

Calculation

Let radius of cylinder = x cm

So, height of the cylinder = 2x cm

So, 2 × [22 /7] × r × h = 616

So, x2 = 49

So, x = 7

So, height of the cylinder = 14 cm

Cone radius = 7 × [1/2] = 3.5 cm

Quantity I: Total surface area of cylinder = 2 × [22/7] × 7 × 21 = 924 cm2

Required difference = 924 – 616 = 308 cm2

Quantity II: lateral height of cone = √196 + 12.25 = √208.25 cm

Curved surface area of the cone = [22/ 7] × 3.5 × √208.25 = 158.84 cm2 (approx.) So, Quantity I > Quantity II
