The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the area of the four walls and the roof of a room with given dimensions, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the dimensions of the room - Length (L) = 6 m - Breadth (B) = 5.4 m - Height (H) = 4 m ### Step 2: Calculate the area of the four walls The formula for the curved surface area (CSA) of a cuboid, which represents the area of the four walls of the room, is given by: \[ \text{CSA} = 2H(L + B) \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{CSA} = 2 \times 4 \times (6 + 5.4) \] \[ \text{CSA} = 2 \times 4 \times 11.4 \] \[ \text{CSA} = 8 \times 11.4 \] \[ \text{CSA} = 91.2 \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the area of the roof The area of the roof of the room can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Area of Roof} = L \times B \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Area of Roof} = 6 \times 5.4 \] \[ \text{Area of Roof} = 32.4 \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Final Results 1. The area of the four walls of the room is **91.2 m²**. 2. The area of the roof of the room is **32.4 m²**. ---
