Question

A conical tent made of canvas has a base that is 34 feet across and a slant height of 12 feet. To the nearest whole unit, what is the area of the canvas, including the floor? Use 3.14 for π

Answer 1

Ok, so we have area formula,
\[A = \pi r^2 + \pi r \sqrt{r^2 + h^2}\]

We need to solve for "h", we can do so using the Pythagorean Theorem
