Correct Answer: INR 7344


Solution : The radius of the base of a conical tent, $r$ = 8 m
Height, $h$ = 15 m
$\therefore$ Slant height, $l$ = $\sqrt{r^2 + h^2}=\sqrt{8^2 + 15^2}=\sqrt{289}= 17$ m
Curved surface area of cone = $\pi rl=8 × 17× \pi=136\pi$ m2
Cost per $\pi$ m2 = INR 54
$\therefore$ Total cost = 136 × 54 = 7344
Hence, the correct answer is INR 7344.
