Detailed Solution

Given that the external diameters of the frustum are 5 cm   and 2 cm   and height is 7 cm  .
We have the following formulae,
Curved surface area of a Cone = 2π r 2  
Curved surface area of a hemisphere = π(R+r)l  
The radius of smaller circular end will be,
= 2 2 =1 cm   The radius of the larger end will be,
= 5 2 =2.5 cm   Radius of hemisphere will be equal to the radius of smaller circular end of frustum,
=1 cm   Height of frustum will be,
= Total height - Height of hemisphere
(h)=71=6 cm   The slant height of frustum will be,
l 2 = (Rr) 2 + h 2  
l= (Rr) 2 + h 2   = (2.51) 2 + (6) 2   = 38.25   =6.18 cm   The External surface area of shuttle =C.S.A   of frustum +C.S.A   of hemisphere
=π[2 r 2 +(R+r)l]  
= 22 7 2 (1) 2 +(2.5+1)6.18   =74.26  cm 2  
Thus, the surface area of the shuttlecock is 74.26  cm 2  .
Therefore the correct option is 1.
