Question 14:
A tent is made in the form of a frustum of a cone surmounted by another cone. The diameters of the base and the top of the frustum are 20 m and 6 m, respectively, and the height is 24 m. If the height of the tent is 28 m and the radius of the conical part is equal to the radius of the top of the frustum, find the quantity of canvas required.
Answer:
For the lower portion of the tent:
Diameter of the base= 20 m
Radius, R, of the base = 10 m
Diameter of the top end of the frustum = 6 m
Radius of the top end of the frustum = r = 3 m
Height of the frustum = h = 24 m
Slant height = l
For the conical part:
Radius of the cone's base = r = 3 m
Height of the cone = Total height - Height of the frustum = 28-24 = 4 m
Slant height, L, of the cone =
Total quantity of canvas = Curved surface area of the frustum + curved surface area of the conical top

(Assume that the radii of the upper circular end of the frustum and the base of the surmounted conical portion are equal.)
Answer:
For the frustum:
Upper diameter = 14 m
Upper Radius, r = 7 m
Lower diameter = 26 m
Lower Radius, R = 13 m
Height of the frustum= h = 8 m
Slant height l =
