A tent of height 77 dm is in the form of a right circular cylinder of diameter 36 m and height 44 dm surmounted by a right circular cone. Find the cost of the canvas at Rs. 3.50 per m2( use π = \(\frac{22}7\)). |

Answer» Given: height of the tent, H = 77 dm = 7.7 m Height of the cylindrical portion, h = 44 dm = 4.4 m ∴ Height of the conical portion, h’ = 7.7 – 4.4 = 3.3 m Radius of the cylinder, r = \(\frac{36}2\) = 18 m Curved surface area of the cylindrical portion of the tent = 2πr2 h = 2 × π × (18)2 × 4.4 = 158.4 π m2 Slant height of the conical portion of the tent = \(\sqrt{3.3^2 + 18^2}\) = 18.3 m ∴ Curved surface area of the conical portion = π × 18 × 18.3 = 329.4π m2 ∴ Total surface area of the tent = 158.4 π + 329.4 π = 487.8 π = 1533.09 m2 ∴ Canvas required to make the tent = 1533.09 m2 Total cost of the canvas = 1533.09 × 3.50 = Rs 5365.80 |
