QUESTION:

Testing the new definition The lateral (side) surface area of a cone of height \(h\) and base radius \(r\) should be \(\pi r \sqrt{r^{2}+h^{2}}\), 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 \(y=(r/h)x,\ 0\le x\le h\), about the x-axis.
