Question

In a right circular conical tent, 11 persons can stay. For each person, 4 sq. m space in the base and 20 cu.m. air are necessary. Determine the height of the tent put up exactly for 11 persons.

WBBSE Class X Mathematics Right Circular Cone 04 Mark 2022

Answer

Base area needed for 11 person = 11 × 4 = 44 m²

Air (volume) needed for 11 person = 11 × 20 = 220 m³

For a cone:

base area = πr² = 44

⇒ r² = \frac{44}{\pi}

Volume = 220 m³

⇒ \frac{1}{3}πr²h = 220

⇒ \frac{1}{3} × π × \frac{44}{\pi} × h = 220

⇒ 44 × \frac{h}{3} = 220

⇒ h = \frac{220 \times 3}{44} = 15 m
