    Step-by-step explanation:

    The lateral area of a cone is ...

    LA = (π/2) ds

    where d is the diameter, and s is the slant height.

    The area of this tower roof is about ...

    LA = (π/2) (12 ft) (13 ft) = 78π ft² ≈ 245 ft²

    About 245/32 = 7.7 bundles of shingles will be required for coverage.

    You should buy 8 bundles of shingles to cover the roof.
