Acompany sells tents in two styles, shown below. the sides and floor of each tent are made of nylon. which tent requires less nylon to manufacture? use 3.14 for pi and round to the hundredths place. show all work to verify your conclusion.

Prism shaped tent will require more nylon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of nylon required will be decided by both the shapes shown in the figure.

First shape of tent is in the shape of a prism having all sides 8 ft in measure.

Since total surface area of the tent including surface and sides

= Area of all square sides + area of triangular sides

= 3(Side)² +

= 3(8²) +

= 192 + 55.43

= 247.43 ft²

Now surface area of the cylindrical tent =

=

= 32π + 16π + 64

= 48π + 64

= 214.86 ft²

Since surface area of the prism shaped ten is higher than cylindrical tent, therefore, more nylon will be required to prepare a prism shaped tent.
