Question
ABCDE is the end view of a factory shed which is 50 m long. The roofing of the shed consists of asbestos sheets as shown in the figure. The two ends of the shed are completely closed by brick walls.
Calculate the total volume content of the shed.
Solution
Volume of shed = Area of wall x length
Area of the wall
= Area of ΔCDE + Area of rectangle ABCE
= `(1)/(2) xx "base" xx "height" + "AB" xx "AE"`
= `(1)/(2) xx 8 xx 3 + 8 xx 7.5`
= 72m2
The volume of the shed
= 72 x 50
= 3600m3. ...(Ans 1)
