Solution

We have,
In ΔABC, ∠B = 90° , AB = l1 =15 cm and BC = l2 = 20 cm
Let OD = OB = r , AO = h1 and CO = h2
Using Pythagoras therom,
`"AC" = sqrt("AB"^2 + "BC"^2)`
`=sqrt(15^2 + 20^2)`
`= sqrt(225 + 400)`
`= sqrt(625)`
⇒ h = 25 cm
As, ar(ΔABC)` = 1/2xxACxxBO=1/2xxABxxBC `
⇒ AC × BO = AB × BC
⇒ 25r = 15 × 20
`rArr r = (15xx20)/25`
⇒ r = 12 cm
Now,
Volume of the double cone so formed = Volume of cone 1 +Volume of cone 2
`= 1/3 pir^2h_1 + 1/3pir^2h_2`
`= 1/3 pir^2 ("h"_1 + "h"_2)`
`= 1/3pi"r"^2"h"`
`= 1/3xx3.14xx12xx12xx25`
= 3768 cm3
Also,
surace area of the solid so formed = CAS of cone 1 + CSA of cone 2
= πrl1 + πrl2
= πr ( l1 + l2 )
`= 22/7xx12xx(15+20)`
`=22/7xx12xx35`
= 1320 cm2
