The correct Answer is:
To find the canvas required for the conical circus tent, we need to calculate the curved surface area of the cone. The formula for the curved surface area (CSA) of a cone is given by: \[ \text{CSA} = \pi r L \] where: - \( r \) is the radius of the base, - \( L \) is the slant height of the cone. ### Step 1: Calculate the Slant Height (L) The slant height \( L \) can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: \[ L = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2} \] where: - \( r = 84 \, \text{m} \) (radius), - \( h = 35 \, \text{m} \) (height). Calculating \( L \): \[ L = \sqrt{(84)^2 + (35)^2} \] Calculating \( 84^2 \): \[ 84^2 = 7056 \] Calculating \( 35^2 \): \[ 35^2 = 1225 \] Now, adding these values: \[ L = \sqrt{7056 + 1225} = \sqrt{8281} \] Calculating the square root: \[ L = 91 \, \text{m} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Curved Surface Area (CSA) Now that we have \( L \), we can substitute the values into the CSA formula: \[ \text{CSA} = \pi r L \] Substituting \( \pi = \frac{22}{7} \), \( r = 84 \, \text{m} \), and \( L = 91 \, \text{m} \): \[ \text{CSA} = \frac{22}{7} \times 84 \times 91 \] Calculating \( \frac{22}{7} \times 84 \): \[ \frac{22 \times 84}{7} = 22 \times 12 = 264 \] Now, substituting this back into the CSA formula: \[ \text{CSA} = 264 \times 91 \] Calculating \( 264 \times 91 \): \[ 264 \times 91 = 24024 \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Final Answer The canvas required for the conical circus tent is: \[ \text{Canvas required} = 24024 \, \text{m}^2 \]
