Respuesta :

Given data:

The given figure of cone.

The expression for the lateral surface area is,

[tex]\text{LSA}=\pi rl[/tex]

Substitute the given values in the above expression.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{LSA}=\pi(9\text{ in)(}15\text{ in)} \\ =424\text{ sq-inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, the lateral surface area is 424 sq-inches, so third option is correct.
