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 diameter = 40 cm
Base radius (r) = cm = 20 cm
=
Height (h) = 1 m
Curved surface area = πrl
= 3.14 x 0.2 x 1.02 = 0.64056 m2
∴ Curved surface area of 50 cones = 0.64056 x 50 m2 = 32.028 m2
∴ Cost of painting all these cones = 32.028 x 12
= 384.336 = र 384.34 (approximately).
