Figure 5 shows a container in the form of a frustum which is made by cutting off the lower part of an inverted right circular cone of base radius 48 cm and height 64 cm. The height of the container is 40 cm. The container is placed on a horizontal table. Some water is now poured into the container. Winnie finds that the area of the wet curved surface of the container is 1275 cm and the depth of water is r cm.
