Solution
[Here the area of the metal required will be equal to the TSA of the can]
→ TSA(cylinder) = 2πr(h+r)
✭ Radius of the cylinder
→ Radius = Diameter/2
→ Radius = 6/2
→ Radius = 3 cm
✭ TSA of the cylinder
→ TSA(cylinder) = 2πr(h+r)
→ TSA = 2 × 22/7 × 3(8+3)
→ TSA = 2 × 22/7 × 3(11)
→ TSA = 2 × 22/7 × 33
→ TSA = 207.42 cm²
Therefore the required area of the metal to make the can is 207.42 cm²
Verified answer
Step-by-step explanation:
r=6cm, h=8cm
The curved surface area of a cylinder=2xrh
.....(formula)
=2× 3.14×6×8= 301.44cm
the total surface area of a cylinder= 2xr(r+h)
=2×3.14×6(6+8)
=2×3.14×6×14
=527.52cm
