<h3>What is area of rectangle?</h3>Area of rectangle is the product of its sides
i.e., Area of rectangle = length x breadth
<h3>What is area of circle?</h3>The area of a circle is pi times the radius squared (A = π r²).
<h3>What is circumference of circle?</h3>The circumference of a circle is defined as the linear distance around it.
( C= 2πr)
The can of red bull is in shape of cylinder.
If we open the cylinder it will have two circular surfaces( at bottom and top) and one rectangular sheet.
Like the given figure given.
- The can is 6.5 inches tall and has a diameter of about 2.5 inches.
It shows that the two circle will have the diameter 2.5 inches.
d= 2.5 inch
= 0.208 ft
radius, r=
r=
r= 0.104 ft
- To get the length of the rectangle , we have to calculate the circumference of the circle.
Circumference of the circle be,
= 2πr
= 2 x 3.14 x 0.104
= 0.653 ft
The rectangular sheet will have,
length= 0.653 ft, breadth= 6.5 inches = 0.541 ft
- Now, area of rectangular sheet be,
= length x breadth
= 0.653 x 0.541
=
- Area of 2 circle( top and bottom of can) be,
= 2 x π
= 2 x 3.14 x 0.104 x 0.104
= 6.28 x 0.010816
= 0.0679
- Total area of can be,
= Area of rectangular sheet + Area of 2 circle( top and bottom of can)
= 0.3532 + 0.0679
= 0.4211
Now, we have the wall of dimensions
length= 9 ft, breadth= 20 ft
- Area of wall be,
= length x breadth
=9 x 20
= 180
- Number of cans required to cover the whole wall be,
=
=
= 427.45 cans
≈ 428 cans
