Solution

Given that, a heap of rice is in the form of a cone.
Height of a heap of rice i.e cone (h) = 3.5 m
And diameter of a heap of rice i.e , cone = 9 m
Radius of a heap of rice i.e , cone (r)=92 m
So, Volume of rice =13π×r2h=13×227×92×92×3.5=623784=74.25 m3
Now , canvas cloth required to just cover heap of rice
= Surface area of a heap rice
=πrl=227×r×r2+h2=227×92×(92)2+(3.5)2=11×97×814+12.25
= 997×1304
= 14.142×5.7=80.61 m2
Hence, 80.61 m2 canvas cloth is required to just cover the heap.
