Prove that a conical tent of given capacity will require the least amount of convas when the height is square root of 2 times the radius of the base.


Let x be the radius of the base, h be the height and y the slant height of the conical tent.
Let V be the given capacity (i.e., volume)
therefore space space space space straight V space equals space 1 third πx squared straight h

Let S be the curved surface.
therefore space space space straight S space equals space πxy space equals space πx square root of straight h squared plus straight x squared end root space space space space rightwards double arrow space space space space space straight S squared space equals space straight pi squared straight x squared open square brackets straight h squared plus straight x squared close square brackets
