If a right circular cone, having maximum volume, is inscribed in a sphere of radius3 cm, then the curved surface area (incm2) of this cone is :

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

In △AMC, AM=3sin2θ & MC=3cos2θ

V=13πr2h where, r is radius and h is height of cone

⇒V=13π3sin⁡2θ23+3cos2θ

(since, radius of cone =AM and height of cone =MC)

⇒V=π36sin2⁡θcos2⁡θ2cos2⁡θ ∵sin⁡2θ=2sin⁡θcos⁡θ & cos⁡2θ=2cos2⁡θ-1

=72πsin2⁡θcos4⁡θ

Differentiating both sides with respect to θ, we get

dvdθ=72π2sin⁡θcos5⁡θ-4sin3⁡θcos3⁡θ

For maximum value, dVdθ=0

⇒72π2sin⁡θcos5⁡θ-4sin3⁡θcos3⁡θ=0⇒tan2⁡θ=12

Thus, volume is maximum when tan⁡θ=12

Hence, curved surface area S=πrl

=πr3+3cos⁡2θ2+(3sin⁡2θ)2 ∵l=r2+h2

=π3sin⁡2θ36cos2⁡θ=18π2sin⁡θcos2⁡θ

=36π13.23=24π3=83π
