  1. Two formed cones (which are formed by revolving the right angle triangle) are given.
    Hypotenuse AC = √(3² + 4²) = √25 = 5 cm
    Area of right angled triangle ABC = 1/2 × AB × AC
    ⇒ 1/2 × AC × OB = 1/2 × 4 × 3
    ⇒ 1/2 × 5 × OB = 6
    ⇒ OB = 12/5 = 2.4 cm
    Volume of double cone = Volume of cone 1 + Volume of cone 2
    = 1/3πr²h₁ + 1/3πr²h₂
    = 1/3πr²(h₁ + h₂) = 1/3πr²(OA + OC)
    1/3 × 3.14 × (2.4)² (5)
    = 30.14 cm³
    Curved surface area of double cone = Curved surface area of cone 1 + curved surface area of cone 2
    = πrl₁ + πrl₂ = πr[4 + 3]
    = 3.14 × 2.4 × 7 = 52.75 cm².
