Let r be the radius, l be the slant height and h be the height of the cone.

Surface area of the cone (S),

 Let r be the radius, be the slant height and h be the height of the cone of given surface area S.

Then S = πrl + πr 2

Let V be the volume of the cone.

Let Y = V2 Then V is maximum on minimum according to Z is maximum or minimum.

Differentiating w rt r

For maximum or minimum, put 

Differentiating (2) wrt r,

Thus, Y is maximum when S= 4πr 2

⇒ V is maximum when S = 4πr 2

Now, S = 4πr 2

⇒πrl + πr 2 = 4πr 2

⇒πrl = 3πr 2

l = 3r

Consider, in right ∆OBC, 

Thus, V is maximum when
