Given: Diameter = 16 m

 Radius (r) = 8 m, height (h) = 6 m

Let slant height = l

begin mathsize 12px style l squared space equals space straight r squared space plus space straight h squared
l space space equals space square root of straight r squared space plus space straight h squared end root space
l italic space italic space equals square root of 8 squared space plus space 6 squared end root
l italic space italic space equals 10 space cm
Thus comma space
l italic space equals space 10 space cm
Curved space surface space area space equals space πr l italic space
equals 22 over 7 cross times 8 cross times 10
equals space 1760 over 7 space straight m squared


end style

Breadth of tarpaulin (B) = 2 m, let length of tarpaulin = L

Area of tarpaulin required = curved surface area of the tent

begin mathsize 12px style straight L space cross times space straight B space equals space 1760 over 7
straight L space equals space fraction numerator 1760 over denominator 7 cross times 2 end fraction
straight L space equals space 880 over 7
straight L space equals space 125.7 space straight m space left parenthesis Approx. right parenthesis end style

 

Area of tarpaulin required is 125.7 m
