Answer:
Surface area:
Surface area of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies and it is always measured in square unit.
Hence surface area is also known as total surface area TSA.
==========================================================
Given:
Length of plastic box (l)= 1.5 m
Width of plastic box(b) = 1.25 m
Depth of plastic box(h) = 65cm = 65/100=0.65m
(i) The area of sheet required to make the box= surface area of the box including the base & excluding the top.
[Box is open at the top]
Surface area of the box = Lateral surface area + Area of the base
= 2(l+b)×h + (l×b)
= 2[(1.5 + 1.25)×0.65] + (1.5 × 1.25)
= 2(2.75)× 0.65 +1.875
=(3.575 + 1.875)
= 5.45 m²
The sheet required required to make the box is 5.45 m²
(ii) Cost of 1 m² of sheet = ₹ 20
Cost of 5.45 m² of sheet = ₹ (20 × 5.45)
= ₹109
Cost of 5.45 m² of sheet = ₹ 109
