(i) Slant height of cone = 14 cm
Let radius of circular end of cone be r.
CSA of cone =
Let radius of circular end of cone be r.
CSA of cone =

Thus, the radius of circular end of the cone is 7 cm.
(ii) Total surface area of cone = CSA of cone + Area of base
=

Let length of tarpaulin sheet required be L.
As 20 cm will be wasted so, effective length will be (L - 0.2 m)
Breadth of tarpaulin = 3 m
Area of sheet = CSA of tent
[(L - 0.2 m)
3] m = 188.4 
L - 0.2 m = 62.8 m
L = 63 m
Thus, the length of the tarpaulin sheet will be 63 m.
Radius (r) of base of tent = 6 m
Slant height (l) of tent =

CSA of conical tent =





Let length of tarpaulin sheet required be L.
As 20 cm will be wasted so, effective length will be (L - 0.2 m)
Breadth of tarpaulin = 3 m
Area of sheet = CSA of tent
[(L - 0.2 m)


L - 0.2 m = 62.8 m
L = 63 m
Thus, the length of the tarpaulin sheet will be 63 m.
