I am not completely sure but I believe it is so people do not get it mixed up with l for length.

My formula for surface area of a cone uses l for slant height. Where does l come from I understand when people use s for slant height but why l?

I belive you can use any letter as a variable for slant height. yea... you can use any letter for any side or whatever that involves a variable (an unknown)


What is the formula to find the area of a cone?

Base surface = pi*r2 Curved surface = pi*r*l where l is the slant height If the vertical height (h) is given rather than the slant height, then use Pythagoras: l2 = h2 + r2


What is the slope height formula?

It is a modified version of the Pythagorean theorem instead of a^2+b^2=c^2 it is h^2+r^2= l^2 where h is height r is radius and l is slant height This is the same thing for slant height for pyramid except instead of radius, it is 1/2 the base


What equation do you use to find slant height from altitude and radius?

On the off chance that the question refers to a right cone, l2 = r2 + h2 by Pythagoras, where l is the slant height, h the altitude and r the radius.


How do you do a lowercase cursive z.?

The same as an upper-case z, just make it half the height.


What is the surface area of a cone with a radius of 5in and a slant height of 7in?

The total surface area of a cone is (pi)*r(r+l) where r = radius and l = slant height. So (pi)5(5+7) (pi)5(12) 188.4 Units Squared


How do you find the lateral surface area of a cone?

pi times l times r (r and l are the radius and slant height, respectively)This can be derived by using a ratio (area/circumference) of the circle with radius L (slant height) with the ratio of the arc (arc-area/arclength). It should look something like this.(pi*l^2)/(2pi*l) = (arc-area)/(2pi*r)


How do you find the side of the cone?

To find the side of a cone, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. The slant height (side) can be calculated by using the formula: s = √(r^2 + h^2), where "s" is the slant height, "r" is the radius of the base, and "h" is the height of the cone.


How do you write Suzanne Collins in cursive?

To write "Suzanne Collins" in cursive, you would start with a cursive "S" followed by a cursive "u," "z," "a," "n," "n," "e". Then, you can write "Collins" in cursive as well, starting with a cursive "C," followed by "o," "l," "l," "i," "n," "s."


How do you do d in cursive?

To make a cursive D, start with making a cursive L. You will make the cursive L, then continue the curve from the bottom to the top, connecting it at the top to the beginning straight line down. You can then end it at the top with a flourish.
