Answer :
Let r ,h,l and θ be the radius ,height, slant height and semi-vertical angle of the cone respectively.

We know that ,volume of cone ![]()
⇒ ![]()
Let S be the curved Surface area of cone.
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
Now , ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
At
, ![]()
Hence, for
, surface area is minimum.
Now, ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ ![]()
⇒ cotθ = √2
⇒ θ = cot-1(√2)
