Answer:
Radius of the cone = 16 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Slant height of the cone 'l' = 5 m
Curved surface area of the cone is represented by the formula,
Curved surface area = πrl
Here r = radius of the circular base of the cone
l = slant height of the cone
By putting the values in the formula,
251 = πrl
251 = πr(5)
r = [tex]\frac{251}{5\pi}[/tex]
r = 15.979
r ≈ 16 m
Therefore, radius of the given cone will be 16 m.
