A tent is in the form a cylinder and is surmounted by a cone; radius and height of the cylindrical portion are 10 m and 25 m respectively. For the conical part, radius is 10 m and slant height is 15 m. Calculate the amount of canvas required to build the tent allowing 20% extra for folding, stitching etc.
Height of Cylinder = 25 m
Radius of Cylinder = 10 m
So, Lateral surface area of cylinder = 2$$\pi rh$$
                           $$=2\times\frac{22}{7}\times10\times25$$
                            $$ = 1571.42857m^2$$                           Â
Slant height of cone(l) = 15 m
Radius of cone = 10 m
So, Lateral surface area of cone = $$\pi rl$$
$$\frac{22}{7} \times 10 \times 15$$
= $$ 471.428571 m^2$$
Canvas required to build the tent = $$1571.42857+471.428=2042.85657m^2$$
 Tent is allowed 20% extra for folding, stitching
So, total canvas is (100 +20 )%
=$$1.2\times2042.85657$$
=$$2451.42m^2$$Â Â Â
