Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Rs. 22880.

Understanding/Application

C.S.A of cone = πrl

Height = 24 cm

Radius = 10 cm

Rate of painting of cone = Rs. 28/cm2

Applying PGT - 

l2 = h2 + r2

l2 = 242 + 102 = 576 + 100 = 676

l = 26 cm

C.S.A of cone = πrl = [(22/7) × 10 × 26] 

Price of painting = 28[(22/7) × 10 × 26] = Rs. 22880
