What is the surface area of the cylinder with height 7 cm and radius 5 cm? Round
1 answer:
Answer:
376.991 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface Area = 2π(5²) + 2π(5)(7)
= 50π + 70π
= 120π
= 376.9911184... ≈ 376.991
<h2>Derive Surface Area of A Cylinder</h2>If you take a look at a net of a cylinder, you can see it is composed of two circles(bases) and a rectangular strip with the length of the diameter of the circle
The formula for the area of a circle = πr², and since there are 2, it is 2πr²
The formula for circumference of a circle = 2πr, and since we are multiplying that by the height by the height of the cylinder, it is 2πrh
∴ 2πr² + 2πrh
