OpenStudy (dumbcow):

you have a question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YES THANK YOU

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the surface area of the cylinder to the nearest whole number. The height is 14 in and base is 13 in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a. 7,433 b. 2,205 c. 1,144 d. 1,062

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

use formula for surface area of cylinder---> area of 2 bases + lateral area \[A = 2 \pi r^2 + 2 \pi r h\]

my calculator on my computer doesnt work

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

try this online calculator http://www.wolframalpha.com/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or just use google, it has a built-in calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks!

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12,821?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@dumbcow

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

no thats too big, notice its not one of your options either did you use 13 for radius and 14 for height ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah idk what happened

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

\[A = 2 \pi (13)^2 + 2 \pi (13) (14)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1,306

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

hmm are you typing exactly that into the calculator? http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=2%CF%80%2813%29%5E2%2B2%CF%80%2813%29%2814%29

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh so its b!

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

yeah now i just gave away the answer .... how were you getting those other numbers? do you know what you were doing wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A = 2 pi r h + 2 pi r^2 A = 2 pi * 13 * 14 + 2 pi * 13^2 A = 364 pi + 338 pi A = 702 pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i basically copy and pasted what you gave me and put it into the calculator

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

:|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When you put it in the calculator make sure you separate the two parts. So do.. 2 pi * 13 * 14 Then do 2 pi * 13^2 And add them together

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooooh thank you! ive never used online calculators before so i didnt know how to put it in
