Canned fruits, vegetables, and soups have labels on the curved surface of the metal container. What is the surface area of the label on this can? That is, what is the can's lateral area? a. 88cm2 b. 401.92cm2 c.552.64cm2 d.954.64cm2

You are looking for the area of a rectangle wrapped around a cylinder. So I would say 8 times 11= 88 cm.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The formula for lateral surface area is 2 * pi * radius * height

OpenStudy (pfenn1):

The area is found by multiplying the circumference of the can by the height of the label: the formula @pratu043 just gave you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the lateral surface area would be: 2 * 22/7 * 8 * 11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you do it now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's pi*radius*2*height 3.14*8*2*11 3.14*16*11 50.24*11 552.64 (c)
