OpenStudy (prathamesh_m):

The lateral area is basically the area of the rectangle shown in the figure.

OpenStudy (prathamesh_m):

You already know the width of the rectangle, so you only need to find the length. Any idea how to do that?

OpenStudy (pleasehelp2346677):

I know I have to multiply them by 2pi ?

OpenStudy (pleasehelp2346677):

I mean divide. I think

OpenStudy (prathamesh_m):

The length of the rectangle is actually the circumference of the base circle which you can find since the radius is given.

OpenStudy (pleasehelp2346677):

okay would that be 263.89 ?

OpenStudy (pleasehelp2346677):

Then divide it by pi it would be 83.998795865

OpenStudy (prathamesh_m):

Yes that's the lateral area.

OpenStudy (pleasehelp2346677):

in terms of pi that would be 84pi

OpenStudy (prathamesh_m):

I meant 263.89. Why would you divide that by pi?

OpenStudy (pleasehelp2346677):

Idk its in terms of pi right?

OpenStudy (pleasehelp2346677):

It can't be a decimal

OpenStudy (prathamesh_m):

Yeah 84pi is right.

OpenStudy (prathamesh_m):

2 x pi x 6 x 7 = 84pi
