Question

Find the surface area and round to the nearest hundredths place when necessary.

Answer 1

Answer:

First lets find the area of the bottom circle:

7.2 is your radius so:

7.2^2 = 51.84 the reason why you square your radius is because thats apart of the formula when finding the are of a circle.

lets continue:

51.84 x 3.14(pi) = 162.7776

Now we need to find the area of the round surface but first we need to find the circumference of one circle and multiply it by the height.

2 x 3.14 x 7.2 = 45.216

Now lets multiply it by the height:

45.216 x 17 = 768.672

Now lets add both areas:

768.672 + 162.7776 = 931.4496 dont forget to round to the nearest hundredths place! 931.4496 rounded up = 931.45 square meters is your answer.
