In a right circular cone a line from the vertex to the center of the circular base is perpendicular to the base. In an oblique circular cone that same line will not be perpendicular.

Is it true you cannot use the surface area formula for a right cone to find the surface area of an oblique?

Yes, it is true that the surface area formula for a right cone cannot be directly applied to an oblique cone. While both have a circular base and a slant height, the lack of a perpendicular height in an oblique cone affects the calculations for lateral surface area and total surface area. To find the surface area of an oblique cone, you must account for its specific geometry, typically involving more complex calculations.


What Difference between cone and right circular cone?

A right circular cone is perfectly balanced on its circular base. Imagine a cone that has a circular base, but leans to one side - this is a non right circular cone.


How does a cone look like?

A cone is a three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat circular base to a single point called the apex. It resembles a party hat or an ice cream cone, with a circular base and a curved surface that narrows to the top. The height of the cone is the perpendicular distance from the base to the apex. Cones can be either right, where the apex is directly above the center of the base, or oblique, where the apex is off to the side.

The surface area formula for a right cone is the same as the surface area formula for an oblique cone?

False. The surface area formula for a right cone is not the same as the surface area formula for an oblique cone.


You cannot use the surface area formula for a right cone to find the surface area of an oblique cone.?

True. This is because the slant height of an oblique cone cannot be defined.

What is the figure called formed by the intersection of a right circular cone and a plane that lies parallel to the edge of the cone?

A parabola is the figure formed by the intersection of a circular cone and a plane that lies parallel to the edge of the cone. (the cone does not have to be a right [90°] circular cone).
