Question 8
Find the cost of polishing a circular table-top of diameter 1.6 m, if the rate of polishing is ₹15/m2
(Take π=3.14)
Diameter of the circular table top = 1.6 m
∴ Radius of the circular table top
=1.62 = 0.8 m
Area of circular table top = πr2
=3.14×0.8×0.8 = 2.0096 m2
Now cost of polishing 1 m2 = ₹ 15
Then cost of polishing 2.0096 m2 = 15 × 2.0096 = ₹ 30.14 (approx)
Thus, the cost of polishing a circular table top is ₹30.14 (approx)
