Case Study-1
13. Due to sudden floods, some welfare associations jointly requested the
government to get 100 tents fixed immediately and offered to contribute
50% of the cost. If the lower part of each tent is of the form of a cylinder of
diameter 4.2 m and height 4 m with the conical upper part of same

(i)Find the area of canvas required to make a tent
Case Study-2
14. A Satellite flying at height h is watching the top of the two tallest mountains
in Uttarakhand and Karnataka, them being Nanda Devi(height 7,816m)
and Mullayanagiri (height 1,930 m). The angles of depression from the
satellite, to the top of Nanda Devi and Mullayanagiri are 30° and 60°
respectively. If the distance between the bases of the two mountains (DS in
the figure) is 1938 km, and the satellite is vertically above the midpoint of
this distance between the two mountains (√3=1.73).
(i) Find the distance of the satellite from the top of Nanda Devi.
(ii) Find the perpendicular distance of the satellite from the ground.
