Any area is proportional to the square of its linear dimensions. So, in order to triple

the surface area of a cone, you would have to multiply its radius and height each

by sqrt(3) = 1.732 (rounded).

It could be done by increasing only the radius, or only the height, but then the

proper factor would depend on the other dimension that isn't being changed.
