Gina stores her toys in a container which has a cylindrical body and a conical lid, as shown below. She wants to cover the entire exterior portion of the container with paper. How much paper, in square feet, would Gina need?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you need to find the lateral area. i dont have the formulas with me but after finding the la for both, you add them.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for both what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well then it's 16...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about the pi? did you round that in?

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

area of cylindrical part = pi*2^2 + 3 * 2*pi*2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

50.26548245743669?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's not a choice though ;/

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

area of cone part = pi*2*2 - though this isn't possible - slant height cannot be equal to radius of the base

OpenStudy (anonymous):

eh...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

answer is 16?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one is better

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does n mean..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is supposed to be pi

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

area of cylinder = what you said take a look - the radius of base of cone = 2 and the sloping side = 2 - not possible if you take it as it is this area = 4 pi making total about 62.83

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16π 20π 24 π 28 π But these are the answers ;/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you dont use area, it says "She wants to cover the entire exterior portion"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it's 24?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cylinder: 2πrh 2π(2)(3) 12π Cone: πrl π(2)(2) 4π 4π+12π=16π 16π

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's all i ask for xD thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u understand it now, since it asks for exterior... you have to find lateral area not area. all you really need is the formula and youre done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean not volume or surface area
