उत्तर

\[\text { Length of the classroom = 7m } \]

\[\text { Breadth of the classroom = 6  }m\]

\[\text { Height of the classroom = 3 . 5 m }\]

\[\text { Total surface area of the classroom to be whitewashed = areas of the 4 walls }\]

\[ = 2 \times \text { (breadth } \times\text {  height + length } \times \text { height })\]

\[ = 2 \times (6 \times 3 . 5 + 7 \times 3 . 5)\]

\[ = 2 \times (21 + 24 . 5)\]

\[ = 91 m^2 \]

\[\text { Also, the doors and windows occupy 17 } m^2 . \]

\[\text { So, the remaining area to be whitewashed  }= 91 - 17 = 74 m^2 \]

\[\text { Given that the cost of whitewashing 1 } m^2\text {  of wall = Rs  }1 . 50\]

\[ \therefore \text { Total cost of whitewashing 74 } m^2 \text { of area } = 74 \times 1 . 50 = Rs 111\]

Parveen wanted to make a temporary shelter for her car, by making a box-like structure with tarpaulin that covers all the four sides and the top of the car (with the front face as a flap which can be rolled up). Assuming that the stitching margins are very small, and therefore negligible, how much tarpaulin would be required to make the shelter of height 2.5 m, with base dimensions 4 m × 3 m?
