Question : The radius of the ends of a frustum of a solid right-circular cone 45 cm high is 28 cm and 7 cm. If this frustum is melted and reconstructed into a solid right circular cylinder whose radius of base and height are in the ratio 3: 5, find the curved surface area (in ${cm}^2$ ) of this cylinder. [Use $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$.]
Option 1: 4580
Option 2: 4610
Option 3: 4640
Option 4: 4620
Correct Answer: 4620
Solution : According to the question, Area of the frustum = Volume of the cylinder ⇒ $\frac{1}{3}\pi$ ((7) 2 + (28) 2 + 7×28) 45 = $\pi r^{2} h$ where $r$, $h$ are the radius and heights of the cylinder ⇒ $\frac{1}{3}\pi(49 + 754 + 196)$ 45 = $\pi × 9x^{2} × 5x$ ⇒ (49 + 754 + 196) 15 = $9x^{2} × 5x$ ⇒ 1029 = $3x^{3}$ ⇒ $x^{3}$ = $\frac{1029}{3}$ = 343 ⇒ $x$ = $\sqrt{343}$ = 7 Curved surface area = $2\pi r h$ = 2 $\frac{22}{7}$ × 35 × 21 = 2 × 22 × 5 × 21 = 4620 Hence, the correct answer is 4620.
