The area of a sloping surface of a protective embankment of mean height ‘d’, side slopes S : 1 and length ‘L’ is
A. $${\text{d}} \times {\text{d}} \times {\text{s}}$$
B. $$\sqrt {{{\text{d}}^2} \times {\text{d}}{{\text{s}}^2}} $$
C. $${\text{Ld}}\sqrt {1 + {{\text{s}}^2}} $$
D. $$2{\text{Ld}}\sqrt {1 + {{\text{s}}^2}} $$
Answer: Option C

Here area of side slopes at both faces;
2LD√(1+s^2), so the answer should be an option (D)
