I need help with this question- 36. Cone A is similar to Cone B with a scale factor 3:5. If the surface area of Cone B is 725 ft^2, find the surface area of Cone A.
Added by Tara H.
Step 1
When two shapes are similar, their corresponding lengths are proportional. The scale factor between two similar shapes tells us how much one shape has been scaled up or down to get the other shape. In this case, Cone A is similar to Cone B with a scale factor of Show more…
