(ii) Find the total cost of painting 100 pillars at the rate of Rs. 120 per cm².

Doubt by Question by Purvi 

Solution : 
No. of Pillars = 100
radius (r) = 7 cm 
height (h) = 24 cm 
Slant Height (l) 
l=√(r²+h²)
l=√[(7)²+(24)²]
l=√[49+576]
l=√[625]
l=25 cm

(i) CSA  of one pillar
= πrl
= (22/7)×7×25
= 22×25
= 550 cm²

(ii) 
CSA  of one pillar = 550 cm²
CSA of 100 Pillars
550 × 100 
=55000 cm²

Cost of Painting 1 cm² = 
Rs. 120
Cost of Painting 
55000 cm²
55000 ×120
= Rs 6600000
