Tunnel tent requires less nylon.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two types of tents - pup tent and tunnel tent.

1. We will find the area of the pup tent.

As we see, the pup tent consists of 3 squares and 2 triangles.

A. Dimensions of the square is given by 8 ft by 8 ft.

So, the area of 3 squares = 3 × side²

i.e. Area of 3 squares = $3\times 8^{2}$ = 3 × 64 = 192 ft².

B. The sides of the triangles are 8 feet.

As the triangles are all equilateral triangles.

The height is given by, $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}side$ = $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\times 8$ = $4\sqrt{3}$ feet.

So, the area of the 2 triangles = $2\times \frac{1}{2}\times base\times height$ = $base\times height$ = $8\times 4\sqrt{3}$ = $32\sqrt{3}$ ft².

Thus, the area of the pup tent = 192 + $32\sqrt{3}$ = 192 + 55.4 = 247.4 ft².

So, the area of the pup tent is 247.4 ft².

1. We will find the area of the tunnel tent.

As we see, the tunnel tent consists of 2 semi-circles, $\frac{1}{2}$ cylindrical shape and a square base.

A. Diameter of the circle is 8 feet.

So, the radius of the circle is $\frac{8}{2}$ = 4 feet.

Then, the area of the 2 semi-circles = $2\times \frac{\pi r^{2}}{2}$

i.e. Area of the semi-circles = $2\times \frac{\pi 4^{2}}{2}$

i.e. Area of the semi-circles = $2\times \frac{50.26}{2}$

i.e. Area of the semi-circles = 50.26 ft².

B. Dimensions of the cylinder is: Radius = 4 ft and Height = 8 ft.

As, we only have $\frac{1}{2}$ cylindrical shape. We will divide the surface area by 2.

So, Lateral surface area of the $\frac{1}{2}$ cylinder = $\pi rh$

i.e. Surface area of the cylinder = $\pi 4\times 8$

i.e. Surface area of the cylinder = $32\pi$

i.e. Surface area of the cylinder = 100.53 ft².

C. Dimensions of the square is given by 8 ft by 8 ft.

Then, the area of the base = $side^{2}$

i.e. Area of the square = $8^{2}$

i.e. Area of the square = 64 ft².

Thus, the area of the tunnel tent = 50.26 + 100.53 + 64 = 214.79 ft².

As, we have that,

247.4 ft² = Area of the pup tent > Area of the tunnel tent = 214.79 ft²

Hence, tunnel tent requires less nylon.
