Surface Areas and Volumes

NCERT Exercise Exercise 13.2

In Fig. 13.12, you see the frame of a lampshade. It is to be covered with a decorative cloth. The frame has a base diameter of 20 cm and height of 30 cm. A margin of 2.5 cm is to be given for folding it over the top and bottom of the frame. Find how much cloth is required for covering the lampshade. 

Radius of the frame (r) = 20/2 cm = 10 cm
Height of the frame (h) = 30 cm + 2×2.5 cm = 35 cm
2.5 cm of margin will be added both side in the height.
Cloth required for covering the lampshade = curved surface area = 2πrh
= (2 × 22/7 × 10 × 35) cm2
= 2200 cm2
