Question:

The lateral (side) surface area of a cone of height h and base radius r should be πr√r2 + h2, the semiperimeter of the base times the slant height. Show that this is still the case by finding the area of the surface generated by revolving the line segment y = (r/h) x, 0 ≤ x ≤ h, about the x-axis.
