Answer:
5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to find the surface area of a cylinder is A = 2πrh + 2πr²
Since we need the height we will need to solve for h
- First we can subtract 2πr² from both sides to get A - 2πr² = 2πrh
- Then we can divide both sides by 2πr to get
Now we can plug in our known values and solve for h
- Here we were given the diameter, d, however this formula is in terms of the radius, r.
- The diameter is equivalent to double the radius, d = 2r
- Therefore the radius is equivalent to half the diameter,
- Plugging in d to solve for r we get
which simplifies to r = 1
The two variables for this equation we have no obtained, A = 12π and r = 1, so we can plug them into our equation to solve for the height
- The height is 5 inches
