    The height of a conical tank is 60 cm and the diameter of its base is 64 cm. The cost of painting it from outside at the rate of Rs. 0.35 per sq m is

    A) Rs. 52.00 (approx)         

    B) Rs. 39.20 (approx)

    C) Rs. 35.20 (approx)         

    D) Rs. 23.94 (approx)

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given that, \[r=32\,cm,\text{ }\] \[h=60\,cm\] \[\therefore \] \[l=\sqrt{{{r}^{2}}+{{h}^{2}}}=\sqrt{1024+3600}\]             \[=\sqrt{4624}=68\] \[\therefore \] Curved surface area \[=\pi rl\]             \[=3.14\times 32\times 68\]             \[=6832.64\,c{{m}^{2}}\]        \[\because \]       Cost of painting 1 sq m \[=Rs.\,35\] \[\therefore \]      Cost of painting \[6832.64\text{ }{{m}^{2}}\]             \[=0.35\times 6832.64=Rs.\,23.94\] (approx.)
