1.The surface area increases approximately by 2k%
2.The volume increases approximately by 3k% for small k
 
Soln: Height of the new cone = H+K*H/100 where H is the height of the original cone
The semivertical angle 'A' is related as
cos A = H/L where L is the slant height
Also for the new cone ,
cos A = (H+kH/100)/L' where L' is the slant height of new cone
 
From above eqs.
L' = L+kL/100
We know
sin A = R/L
For the new cone, 
sin A = R'/(L+kL/100)
From above eqs.
R' = R+kR/100
 
Total Surface Area = 2RH+R2
Total Surface area of new cone = 2(R+kR/100)(H+kH/100) + (R+kR/100)2
 
Increase in area = ((Area of new cone)/Area of original cone)-1
On solving ,
Increase = 2k/100
Therefore , percentage increase = 2k%
 
Volume = 1/3R2H
Volume of new cone = 1/3R'2H'    where R'=R+kR/100 , H'=H+kH/100
On solving
Percentage Increase =3k%
