A right cylinder has a circumference of 16π cm. Its height is half the radius. Identify the lateral area and the surface area of the cylinder rounded to the nearest tenth.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the explanation is a little long

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh... alright. It's just how it's shown for me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide 16 pi by 2 to get the radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to get height is half the radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, you are a fast learner

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which one should i get first the lateral area or the surface area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lateral.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AL=2πrh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2*rh only right? and then just add pi afterwards, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it depend on your question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

show me the picture of the real question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That is the real question. Look; A right cylinder has a circumference of 16π cm. Its height is half the radius. Identify the lateral area and the surface area of the cylinder rounded to the nearest tenth. L = 100.5 cm2 ; S = 401.8 cm2 L = 201.1 cm2 ; S = 603.2 cm2 L = 201.1 cm2 ; S = 401.8 cm2 L = 100.5 cm2 ; S = 603.2 cm2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AL≈201.1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so multiply it with the pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and tell me the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dont forget we want to get the lateral area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I wrote it out on paper. For the answer I got 631,454

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when you multiply it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You said take 201.1*3.14, didn't you? That's what I get for that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no that 201.1 that was the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i gave you so that you would check it with your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh......

OpenStudy (anonymous):

these is the formula for lateral area =AL=2πrh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

r=8, h=4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x34?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

68?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now fix in the number and multiply

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 x pi x 4 x 8=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

136,748

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6.28x32?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you multiply 2 x pi x 4 x 8=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

20,176

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is what i got now.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pls try it again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

192

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24x8=192

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go to google and use the calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and multiply it with pi and not 3.14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

201.06

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay now you got

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the answer for lateral area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in your answer it was approximated and it change to 201.1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to let you know the and is B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

L = 201.1 cm2 ; S = 603.2 cm2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

surface area 603?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now let get the surface area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was thinking that, but wasn't sure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know the formula for surface area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For a cube, or something easier, yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I usually don't remember them always off the top of my head.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A=2πrh+2πrsquare

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i would brake it down A= 2 x pi x 8 x 4 + 2 x pi x 8 x 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

256..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and you would first do the multiplication before you do the addition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try again and use google calculator and don't forget you would first do the multiplication before you do the addition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and use pi and not 3.14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

603.185789489

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct now approximate it to the nearest tenth

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and tell me the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

603.2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct, now you are master geomatry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good luck, and which school are you from

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Liberty.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and again if you do not understand let me know i am not leaving

OpenStudy (anonymous):

liberty what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Online academy.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it in va

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Liberty university.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it in virginia

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's an online course that I wanted done a long time ago. I believe so.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what time do you finish high school

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was supposed to be graduated already. I was an AP student for a very long time. Always ahead until the death of my mother. After that I got night terrors, ended up with epilepsy that I still have to this day.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My major was in psychology.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oooh, am so sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The questions you helped with? They were to be done 3 years ago, I just didn't manage.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

bye, to let you know i'm still in high school i am just really good in math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow. Congrats! Thanks for the help, once again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anytime

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and are you in virginia

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, Colorado.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, good luck .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah. It's hard with seizures and cancer. Thanks though! do you have to go now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

who is with cancer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I suffer it in my stomach intestines. It has it to where my stomach doesn't digest properly, and it hurts constant.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd rather not get into that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a very emotional topic to get into. That's why I'd rather not.
