If a right circularcone having maximum volume, is inscribed in a sphere of radius \(3\, cm\), then the curved surface area (in \(cm^2\)) of this cone is

  1. A \(8\sqrt 3 \pi \)
  2. B \(6\sqrt 2 \pi \)
  3. C \(6\sqrt 3 \pi \)
  4. D \(8\sqrt 2 \pi \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(8\sqrt 3 \pi \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Sphere of radius \(r=3 \mathrm{cm}\) Let \(b, h\) be base radius and height of cone respectively. So, volume of \(\mathrm{cone}=\frac{1}{2} \pi b^{2} h\) In right angled \(\Delta A B C\) by Pythagoras theorem \((h-r)^{2}+b^{2}=r^{2}\)…
