A solid wooden cylinder of height 8cm and radius 3cm is cut in two vertical axis of symmetry. Calculate the total surface area of the two pieces

OpenStudy (gorv):

first calculate the surface are of complete cylinder

OpenStudy (gorv):

=2*pi*r*h+2pi*r^2

OpenStudy (gorv):

can u find it ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup 54pi?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait no66pi

OpenStudy (gorv):

2*pi*3*8+2*pi*3^2 =48pi+18pi=66pi

OpenStudy (gorv):

yeah u r right

OpenStudy (gorv):

now if cut down in two part so surface area will be half for both

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup but i dont get it next

OpenStudy (gorv):

cylinder cut in 2equal part so surface area will divide in 2 part

OpenStudy (gorv):

66/2=33pi each

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then?

OpenStudy (gorv):

but after cutiing the base will be rectangle

OpenStudy (gorv):

with dimensino length=8 and width=3

OpenStudy (gorv):

surfce area=8*3=24 so surface area of each = 33pi +24=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup i got it till there

OpenStudy (gorv):

OpenStudy (gorv):

after cutting it base will be rectangular

OpenStudy (gorv):

|dw:1414064675920:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thnx ill try it

OpenStudy (perl):

and the total surface area is twice that area

OpenStudy (perl):

oh wait ,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait thats not right it should be 303cm squared thats what the answer says

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yah perfecr ig to that too thnx anyways~
