A hemisphere and a cone have equal bases. If their heights are also equal, then the ratio of their curved surfaces will be:
The hemisphere and the cone have equal bases
$$=$$>Â Radius of the hemisphere = Radius of the cone
Let Radius of the hemisphere = Radius of the cone = r
Height of hemisphere is equal to the radius of the of the hemisphere
Given, Heights of hemisphere and cone are equal
$$=$$>Â Height of the cone (h) = r
$$\therefore\ $$Ratio of their curved surfaces =Â $$2\pi\ r^2:\pi\ r\left(\sqrt{r^2+h^2}\right)$$
$$=2\pi\ r^2:\pi\ r\left(\sqrt{r^2+r^2}\right)$$
$$=2\pi\ r^2:\sqrt{2}\pi\ r^2$$
$$=2:\sqrt{2}$$
$$=\sqrt{2}.\sqrt{2}:\sqrt{2}$$
$$=\sqrt{2}:1$$
Hence, the correct answer is Option C
