Question

Find the surface area of the following cylinder.

Answer

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:

$SA = 2(\pi r^2)+(2 \pi r h)$

Where is the radius of the cylinder and is the height of the cylinder

Plugging in our values, we get:

$SA = 2\pi (4m)^2 + 2 \pi (4m)(9m)$

$SA = 104 \pi m^2$

Question

This figure is a right cylinder with radius of 2 m and a height of 10 m.

What is the surface area of the right cylinder (m2)?

Answer

In order to find the surface area of a right cylinder you must find the area of both bases (the circles on either end) and add them to the lateral surface area. The area of the two circles is easy to find with $\pi r^{2}$ but remember to multiply by 2 for both bases

$2\cdot2^{2}\cdot\pi= 25.14$ .

Next find the lateral area. The lateral area if unrounded would be a rectangle with height of 10 m and length equal to the circumference of the base circles. Thus the lateral area is

$4\cdot\pi\cdot10= 125.66$

Now add the lateral area to the area of the two bases:

Question

Find the surface area of a cylinder given that its radius is 2 and its height is 3.2.

Answer

The standard equation to find the surface area of a cylinder is

$Surface\ Area=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh$

where denotes the radius and denotes the height.

Plug in the given values for and to find the area of the cylinder:

$Area=2\pi (2)^2+2\pi (2)(3.2)=8\pi +12.8\pi =20.8\pi$

Question

The base of a cylinder has an area of $9\pi$ and the cylinder has a height of . What is the surface area of this cylinder?

Answer

The standard equation for the surface area of a cylinder is

$SA=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh$

where denotes radius and denotes height. We've been given the height in the question, so all we're missing is the radius. However, we are able to find the radius from the area of the circle:

$Area=\pi r^2$

We know the area is $9\pi$

$9\pi =\pi r^2$ so

Now that we have both and , we can plug them into the standard equation for the surface area of a cylinder:

$SA=2\pi (3)^2+2\pi (3)(12)=18\pi +72\pi =90\pi$

Question

Find the surface area of the following cylinder.

Answer

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:

$SA = lateral\ area + 2\cdot (base)$

$SA = 2 \pi r (h) + 2 (\pi r^2)$

where is the radius of the base and is the length of the height.

Plugging in our values, we get:

$SA = 2 \pi (7m) (11m) + 2 \pi (7m)^2$

$SA = 154 \pi m^2 + 98 \pi m^2 = 252 \pi m^2$

Question

Find the surface area of the following partial cylinder.

Answer

The formula for the surface area of this partial cylinder is:

$SA = 2(\pi r^2)(part)+2(r)(h)+(2 \pi r)(part)(h)$

Where is the radius of the cylinder, is the height of the cylinder, and is the sector of the cylinder.

Plugging in our values, we get:

$SA = 2(\pi (8m)^2)\left(\frac{60}{360}\right)+2(8m)(5m)+(2 \pi (8m))\left(\frac{60}{360}\right)(5m)$

$SA = \frac{64 \pi m^2}{3} + 80m^2 + \frac{40 \pi m^2}{3}$

$SA = \frac{104 \pi m^2}{3} + 80m^2$

Question

Find the surface area of the following partial cylinder.

Answer

The formula for the surface area of this partial cylinder is:

$SA = 2(\pi r^2)(part)+2(r)(h)+(2 \pi r)(part)(h)$

where is the radius of the cylinder, is the height of the cylinder, and is the sector of the cylinder.

Plugging in our values, we get:

$SA = 2(\pi r^2)(part)+2(r)(h)+(2 \pi r)(part)(h)$

$SA = 2(\pi (6m)^2)\left(\frac{270}{360}\right)+2(6m)(20m)+(2\pi (6m))\left(\frac{270}{360}\right)(20m)$

$SA = 54 \pi m^2 + 240m^2 +180 \pi m^2$
