The radius of a conical tent is 7m and the height is 24m. calculate the length of the canvas used to make the tent if the width of the rectangular canvas is 4m?
Answers
Answer:
- Length of the canvas = 137.5m
Explanation:
A conical tent of radius 7m and height 24m is made from a rectangular canvas of width 4m.
Finding it's length.
Here,
C. S. A.(curved surface area) of the conical tent = Area of the rectangular canvas.
C. S. A. of the conical tent is given by,
⇒ πrl
Where,
- r(radius) = 7m
- ‘l’ denotes the slant height.
Calculating ‘l’ :-
⇒ l = √(r² + h²)
⇒ l = √(7)² + (24)²
⇒ l = √49 + 576
⇒ l = √625
⇒ l = 25
So, the C. S. A. is :-
⇒ πrl
⇒ 22/7 × 7 × 25
⇒ 22 × 25
⇒ 550m²
Now,
Area of the canvas = C. S. A. of the tent
Where, the canvas is rectangular so area will length × breadth. And the C. S. A. of the tent is 550m²
⇒ length × width = 550m²
⇒ length × 4 = 550m²
⇒ length = 550/4
⇒ length = 137.5m

Given :—
- The radius of a conical tent is 7 m
- the height is 24 m
To Find :—
- calculate the length of the Canvas used to make the tent if the width of the rectangular Canvas is 4 metre.
Solution :—
It's given that r = 7 m & h = 24 m
» l = √r² + h²
» l = √ 7² + 24²
» l = 25 cm
Area of canvas :—
→ π r l
→ 22/7 × 7 × 25
→ 550 m²
width = 4 m [ given ]
height = area/width
→ height = 550/4
→ height = 137.5 m
