  1. A right circular conical structure stands on a circular base of 21 metre diameter and is 14 metre in height. The total cost of colour washing for its curved surface at Rs. 6 per square metre is (Take π = 22/7)
    1. Rs. 4365
    2. Rs. 4465
    3. Rs. 3465
    4. Rs. 3365
Correct Option: C


AC =

OC = 14 metre
∴ Slant height (l) = √AC² + CO²
= √
