Hey there! I'm happy to help!
BOTTOM CIRCLE
First, let's find the area of the bottom circle. We will use 3.14 for pi.
A=3.14×r²
A=3.14×25²
A=3.14×625
A=1962.5
TOP CIRCLE WITH OPENING
The top circle has the same area as the bottom one but the area of the opening is subtracted from it. Let's find the area of this circular opening with a radius of 14 cm.
A=3.14×14²
A=3.14×196
A=615.44
Now, we subtract this from the area of the 25 cm radius circle.
1962.5-615.44=1347.06
RECTANGLE
A cylinder is made up of a rectangle wrapped around a top and bottom circle. One side of that rectangle is the height of the cylinder and the other side is the circumference of the circle, as the top side of the rectangle wraps completely around the circle.
Let's find the circumference of the circle.
C=3.14×d
Diameter is twice the radius, so diameter is 50 cm.
C=3.14×50
C=157
We multiply this by the height.
157×1.5=235.5
TOTAL SURFACE AREA
We now combine the areas of the bottom circle, top circle with opening, and rectangle to find the surface area.
1962.5+1347.06+235.5=3545.06
Therefore, the surface area of the tank is 3545.06 m².
Have a wonderful day! :D
