Answer: Option A. -> 429$$\,{\text{sq}}{\text{.m}}$$
Volume of cylinder = $$\pi {r^2}h$$
∴ Curved surface area of cylinder = $$2\pi rh$$
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore \frac{{\pi {r^2}h}}{{2\pi rh}} = \frac{{616}}{{352}} \cr
& \Rightarrow r = \frac{{2 \times 616}}{{352}} \cr
& \Rightarrow r = 3.5\,m \cr} $$
∴ Volume of cylinder :
$$\eqalign{
& \Rightarrow \pi {r^2}h = 616 \cr
& \Rightarrow \frac{{22}}{7} \times 3.5 \times 3.5 \times h = 616 \cr
& \Rightarrow 11 \times 3.5 \times h = 616 \cr
& \Rightarrow h = \frac{{616}}{{11 \times 3.5}} \cr
& \Rightarrow h = 16 \cr} $$
∴ Total surface area of the cylinder :
$$\eqalign{
& = 2\pi rh + 2\pi {r^2} \cr
& = 2\pi r\left( {h + r} \right) \cr
& = 2 \times \frac{{22}}{7} \times 3.5\left( {16 + 3.5} \right) \cr
& = 2 \times \frac{{22}}{7} \times 3.5\left( {19.5} \right) \cr
& = 22 \times 19.5 \cr
& = 429\,{\text{sq}}{\text{.m}} \cr} $$

Answer: Option B. -> Decrease by 25%
Let the radius of a right circular cine be R cm and height be H cm
Volume of right circular cone $$ = \frac{1}{3}\pi {R^2}H{\text{ cu}}{\text{.cm}}$$
When height of right circular cone is increased by 200% and radius of the base is reduce by 50%
New volume :$$\eqalign{
& {\text{ = }}\frac{1}{3}\pi {\left( {\frac{R}{2}} \right)^2}.3H \cr
& = \frac{1}{3}\pi \frac{{{R^2}4}}{4}.3H \cr

Answer: Option B. -> 525 m
$$\eqalign{
& \pi {r^2} = 346.5 \cr
& {r^2} = \left( {346.5 \times \frac{7}{{22}}} \right) \cr
& {r^2} = \frac{{441}}{4} \cr
