A conical tent is 10 m high and the radius of its base is 24 m. Find:
(i) slant height of the tent.
(ii) cost of the canvas required to make the tent, if the cost of 1 m2 canvas is र 70.
Base radius (r) = 7 cm
Height (h) = 24 cm
Slant height (l) =
Curved surface area of a cap =
∴ Curved surface area of 10 caps = 550 x 10 = 5500 cm2
Hence, the area of the sheet required to make 10 such caps is 5500 cm2.
