Surface Area

Question 3 • Mathematical Models with Applications - MA4072 CR

What is the surface area of a cylinder with the given dimensions? Express your answer to nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for pi.Radius = 5 cm.; Height = 8 cm.

Answer
A
582.45 sq. cm
B
281.34 sq.cm
C
408.20 sq.cm
D
347.80 sq. cm

Explanation

The total surface area of a cylinder is 2πr² + 2πrh. Using r = 5 cm, h = 8 cm, and π = 3.14: 2(3.14)(5²) + 2(3.14)(5)(8) = 157 + 251.20 = 408.20 square centimeters. The correct choice is 408.20 sq. cm.
