Answer» Actual needed value `= l(b + 20)` `= lb + 20l` `lb = csa + 20l` `b = ( pi r l + 20l)/l` `= (22/7 xx 6 xx 10 + 20 xx 3)/3 ` `= (1320 + 420)/21 = 83m` `b = 83 m - 0.143m` `= 82.857m` now for the cone, `3l = pi xx 6 xx sqrt(8^2 + 6^2)` `l = 22/7 xx 2 xx 10= 62m + 6/7 m` `L= l+ 20cm` `= 62m + (6/7 xx100cm)= ` `~~ 63m ` answer |
