Detailed Solution

Given, radius = 7 m, height = 24 m.
Then slant height is,
  l= 7 2 + 24 2   l= 625   l=25   m
The area of the cloth required to make the tent = curved surface area of the conical tent.
We know, Curved Surface Area= πrl   .
So, the curved surface area is,
Area= 22 7 ×7×25  
550   m 2  
Given, the width of the cloth is 2.5 m.
Now let us find the length of the cloth by,
Length=  Area  Width   Length= 550 2.5   220   m
So, the length of the cloth is 220m.
Therefore, the correct option is 2.
