Each tile used on the roof has an area of 600\text{ cm}^2. How many tiles are used to cover the roof?
The Louvre pyramid is a large glass and metal pyramid which serves as the entrance to the Louvre museum in Paris. It is a square pyramid with a perpendicular height of 22\text{ m} and a base length of 35 m.
If the surface of the pyramid (excluding the base) is entirely covered in glass, how many square metres of glass make up the structure? Round your answer to the nearest square metre.
A grain silo has the shape of a cylinder attached to a cone, with dimensions as shown in the diagram on the right:
Find the surface area of the silo, to the nearest square metre, assuming that the top is closed.
The silo is manufactured out of sheet metal that has a mass of 2.4 \text{ kg/m}^2. Find the total mass of the silo to the nearest kilogram.
