from the diagram, we can see that the height or line perpendicular to the parallel sides is 8.5.

likewise we can see that the parallel sides or "bases" are 24.3 and 9.7, so

$\textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} h=height\\ a,b=\stackrel{parallel~sides}{bases}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=8.5\\ a=24.3\\ b=9.7 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} A=\cfrac{8.5(24.3+9.7)}{2}\\\\ A=\cfrac{8.5(34)}{2}\implies A=144.5~in^2 \end{array}$

Q2.What is the ratio of volumes of the two cylinders formed by rolling a sheet of dimensions lxb in two different ways? Q3.What

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

2. b : l

3. 20cm

4. 49 $cm^{2}$

5. $(2\pi+1):2\pi$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solution 2:</u>

Let cylinder is rolled along 'l':

Height of cylinder , h = length of rectangle = l

Perimeter of base = b

Let 'r' be the radius of cylinder's base:

$2\pi r = b\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{b}{2\pi}$

Volume of a cylinder is given as:

$V = \pi r^{2} h$

Putting the values:

$V_1 = \pi (\dfrac{b}{2\pi})^2 l\\\Rightarrow V_1 = (\dfrac{b^2}{4\pi}) l$

Let cylinder is rolled along 'b':

Height of cylinder , h = length of rectangle = b

Perimeter of base = l

Let 'r' be the radius of cylinder's base:

$2\pi r = l\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{l}{2\pi}$

Volume of a cylinder is given as:

$V = \pi r^{2} h$

Putting the values:

$V_2 = \pi (\dfrac{l}{2\pi})^2 b\\\Rightarrow V_2 = (\dfrac{l^2}{4\pi}) b$

Taking ratio:

$V_1:V_2 = \dfrac{(\dfrac{b^2}{4\pi}) l}{(\dfrac{l^2}{4\pi}) b} = b:l$

Solution 3:

Rectangle is rolled along its length to make a cylinder, so height will be equal to its length.

$\therefore$ height of cylinder = 20 cm

Solution 4:

Side of square = 7 cm

Height of cylinder =Side of square = 7 cm

7 cm will be the circumference of the circle.

i.e. $2\pi r$ = 7 cm

Curved surface area of a cylinder:

$CSA = 2\pi rh$

Putting the above values:

CSA = 7 $\times$ 7 = 49 $cm^{2}$

Solution 5:

As calculated in above step:

CSA = $2\pi rh =$ 7 $\times$ 7 = 49 $cm^{2}$

Total surface area = $2\pi r^{2} + 2\pi r h$

Calculating value of r:

$2\pi r$ = 7 cm

$\Rightarrow 2 \pi r = 7\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{7}{2\pi}$

Total surface area =

$2\pi (\dfrac{7}{2\pi})^{2} + 49\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{49}{2\pi}+49\\\Rightarrow 49(\dfrac{1}{2\pi}+1) cm^2$

Ratio of TSA: CSA is

$49(\dfrac{1}{2\pi}+1) cm^2 : 49 cm^2\\\Rightarrow (\dfrac{1}{2\pi}+1):1\\\Rightarrow (2\pi+1): 2\pi$
