A pedestal is constructed in the form of the frustum of a pyramid, the sides of the square ends of the frustum being 360 cm and 160 cm and its slant height 260 cm.
Find volume, lateral surface area including area of the top and cost of construction and plastering it
____________________________________
Answer ⤵
The cost of construction is Rs 1012.80.
Slant height = 260 cm (Given)
Square ends of frustum = 360 cm and 160 cm {Given}
Base = (360 - 160)/2 => 100 cm
Slant height = a² + b² = c²
a² + 100² = 260²
a² = 57600
a = √57600
a = 240 cm
Therefore, height is 240 cm
Volume = h/3 ( Area 1 + Area 2 + √ Area 1 x Area 2
= 2.4/3 ( 3.6 x 3.6 + 1.6 x 1.6 + √(3.6 x 1.6) )
= 0.8 ( 17.92) = 14.336 m³
Therefore, the volume is 14.336 m³
Lateral surface area -
For one face = 1/2 × (3.6 + 1.6) x 2.6 = 6.76 m²
For four faces = 6.76 x 4 = 27.04 m²
Surface area needed to plaster:
= 1.6 x 1.6 + 27.04
= 29.6 m²
The total surface area is 42.56 m²
Cost of construction - 1 m³ = Rs 50
14.336 m³ = 50 x 14.33
= Rs 716.80
The cost of construction is Rs 716.80
Cost of plastering - 1 m² = Rs 10
Thus, for 29.6 = 29.6 x 10 = Rs 296
The cost of plastering is Rs 296
Total cost: = 716.80 + 296
= Rs 1012.80
