Solution
Slant height of the frustum (l)
= `sqrt("h"^2 + ("R" - "r")^2`
= `sqrt(8^2 + (12 - 6)^2`
= `sqrt(64 + (6)^2`
= `sqrt(64 + 36)`
= `sqrt(100)`
Slant height = 10 m
Total Area to be painted = C.S.A of the Frustum + top area
= πl (R + r) + πr2 sq.units
= π[l (R + r) + r2]
= `22/7[10(12 + 6) + 6^2]`
= `22/7[10 xx 18 + 36] "cm"^2`
= `22/7[180 + 36] "cm"^2`
= `(22 xx 216)/7`
= `4752/7 "cm"^2`
= 678.86 cm2
Cost of painting = ₹ 678.86 × 2 = ₹ 1357.72
