To find the curved surface area of a right circular cone, we can use the formula:
\[ \text{Curved Surface Area} = \pi r l \]
where \( r \) is the radius and \( l \) is the slant height of the cone.
First, we need to find the slant height \( l \). We can use the Pythagorean theorem, since the radius, height, and slant height form a right triangle:
\[ l = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2} \]
Given:
- Radius \( r = 30 \) cm
- Height \( h = 4 \) cm
Let's calculate the slant height \( l \):
\[ l = \sqrt{30^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{900 + 16} = \sqrt{916} = 2\sqrt{229} \]
Now, we can find the curved surface area:
\[ \text{Curved Surface Area} = \pi \times 30 \times 2\sqrt{229} = 60\pi\sqrt{229} \]
So, the curved surface area of the cone is \( 60\pi\sqrt{229} \) square centimeters.
