How Do You Find the Lateral and Surface Areas of a Cone?

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

The lateral surface area of a cone. Hmmm, what does that mean? Oh, it means the part you see if the cone was sitting on a flat surface, so it does not include the base. But if you want to include the base then it would be finding the surface area of a cone. Watch this video and learn the formulas to find the lateral area and the surface area of a cone.
