Tag: surface area of cone

Given the values for radius and height of a Cone, write a C program to calculate Surface Area of the Cone.

Formula To Calculate Surface Area of Cone

Surface_Area = PI * radius * (radius + sqrt(height * height + radius * radius ));
where PI is approximately equal to 3.14

Note: sqrt() is a builtin method present in math.h header file.

Source Code: C Program To Calculate Surface Area of Cone

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>

int main()
{
    const float PI = 3.14;
          float r, h, s_area;

    printf("Enter radius and height of the cone\n");
    scanf("%f%f", &r, &h);

    s_area = PI * r * ( r + sqrt(h * h + r * r) );

    printf("Surface Area of Cone is %f\n", s_area);

    return 0;
}

Output 1:
Enter radius and height of the cone
8
