It should be D.

Please anyone explain the answer.

Apurba Maity said:   9 years ago
The answer will be D.

Abhijeet said:   8 years ago
C is correct.

D is for total area means for both side slopes.

Murali said:   8 years ago
D is the correct option.

Bhoopendr said:   8 years ago
Side wall width=d*√(1+s^).
Area of side wall =width*length
So L*d*√(1+s^) is one sloping side.
(2)

Here area of side slopes at both faces;

2LD√(1+s^2), so the answer should be an option (D).

TANU said:   5 years ago
I think the answer should be (D) as area of the sloping surface of a protective embankment indicate both sides of the section.

Bhargab said:   5 years ago
C is correct. Because in question, they want the area of slopping side. So only one sloping sides area will be the answer.

The answer should be D as here it is not asked for only one side of slope hence we will consider both side of slopes.
