there are 25 persons in a conical tent  every person needs an area of 4 sq m   on the ground under the tent. if  height if the tent is 18m.find the volume  of the tent.

Total area of ground=4×25=100 sq m  As the tent is conical so this ground is  circle. If this circle has radius r               πr^2 =100   Volume of the tent(V) of the height(h)               V=(1/3)πr^2 h=(1/3)(πr^2 )h                   =(1/3)×100×18=600 m^3

$$\mathrm{Total}\:\mathrm{area}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{ground}=\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{25}=\mathrm{100}\:\mathrm{sq}\:\mathrm{m} \\ $$$$\mathrm{As}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{tent}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{conical}\:\mathrm{so}\:\mathrm{this}\:\mathrm{ground}\:\mathrm{is} \\ $$$$\mathrm{circle}.\:\mathrm{If}\:\mathrm{this}\:\mathrm{circle}\:\mathrm{has}\:\mathrm{radius}\:\mathrm{r} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\pi\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{100} \\ $$$$\:\mathrm{Volume}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{tent}\left(\mathrm{V}\right)\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{height}\left(\mathrm{h}\right) \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{V}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\pi\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{h}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\left(\pi\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{2}} \right)\mathrm{h} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}×\mathrm{100}×\mathrm{18}=\mathrm{600}\:\mathrm{m}^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$
