Let x and y meters be the length and breath of the rectangular base of the tank respectively.

Then, volume V of the tank is

V = length * depth * breath.

V = 2xy = 8m3(given).

y=82x=4x.

Let 't' be the total cost of building the tank.

Then, t = cost of base + cost of sides.

= 70xy + 45[4x+4y]     {there are four side

C D = ( 1 0 + x 2 ) 2 ( 1 0 x 2 ) 2 = 2 1 0 | x |

From option let it be isosceles where AB = AC then

x = r 2 ( h r ) 2            

r 2 h 2 r 2 + 2 r h

x = 2 h r h 2 . . . . . . . . ( i )

 Now ar ( Δ A B C ) = Δ = 1 2 B C × A L

Δ = 1 2 × 2 2 h r a 2 × h        

then  x = 2 × 3 r 2 × r 9 r 2 4 = 3 2 r f r o m ( i )

So A B = h 2 + x 2 = 9 r 2 4 + 3 r 2 4 = 3 r .

Hence Δ be equilateral having each side of length 3 r .
