gamers can play video games without having to worry about
other people or the environment. This can be a great place to
relax and have some fun, while also getting some exercise

37 Case Study: Radha Krishnan's Cone Business

Radha Krishnan, an unemployed individual, decided to venture

into a small business to make ends meet. His entrepreneurial
spirit led him to the world of street food, specifically selling bhel
and chana jor garam. To present these snacks in a convenient
and attractive way, Radha Krishnan chose to prepare cones
made of paper.
Cone Specifications:
- Height of each cone: 21cm
- Slant height of each cone: 28cm
This case study illustrates the practical application of geometry
in a small business setting, emphasizing the importance of
precise measurements for cost-effective production.
Read the above situation and answer the following questions
(i) Find radius of cone so formed. 1
(ii) How much paper does he require to make one such cone. 1
(iii) Find the volume of 10 such cones. 2
Or
If the radius and slant height of a cone are in the ratio of 3:5,its
new curved surface area is 2310cm sq.then find its new radius
and height.
38 A resident welfare society, seeking to enhance community
living, embarked on the development of a unique land parcel
with a parallelogram shape measuring 120 by 100 meters. The
society aimed to create a cohesive environment by introducing a
new quadrilateral formed by joining the midpoints of
consecutive sides in the middle of the land.

The primary objective of this case study is to explore how the

strategic development of the land, including the creation of a
central quadrilateral, contributes to fostering community
engagement, aesthetics, and functionality within the resident
welfare society.

Read the above information and answer the following

question
1

1. What is the shape of quadrilateral PQRS formed?
2
2. If the length of PQ is 90 m. What is the length of
AC?
3. The society wants to fence the land. If the cost of
fencing 1m is ₹ 75, then find out the cost of
fencing the whole land.Also Find the area of
triangle PQB?
OR
Diagonals AC and BD of a parallelogram ABCD
intersect each other at O, if OA=50m and OD =30
m determine the length of AC and BD. Also find
∠A -∠C.
