Find the surface area of the cylinder in terms of pi. A. 504 cm2 B. 333 cm2 C. 382.5 cm2 D. 211.5 cm2

hartnn (hartnn):

the surface are of cylinder is given by 2pi.r.(r+h) where r is the radius h is the height. does this help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

hartnn (hartnn):

ok,the height h=19 cm the diameter=9 cm so can u tell me the radius?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4.5?

hartnn (hartnn):

right. so now u have r=4.5,h=19 put this in 2pi r*(r+h) and tell me what u get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 664.4468

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SA=2 pi r2+2pi r h

hartnn (hartnn):

but u also plugged in pi value, whats the answer without plugging pi value??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

105.75?

hartnn (hartnn):

u divide 664.44 by pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

211.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ugh. i give up

hartnn (hartnn):

yup ,right :) 211.5 is correct :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you!

hartnn (hartnn):

@SmileyFace13 ,211.5 is actually the correct answer which u got....

hartnn (hartnn):

welcome :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wrong

hartnn (hartnn):

whats wrong? 2*4.5*(4.5+19)=211.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh! in terms of pi you r correct. sorry

hartnn (hartnn):

its ok :)
