The shape of the can is cylindrical, by employing the formula for lateral surface area and plugin in our data the answer was gotten as
14.2 square inches
<h3>Mensuration of solids (Cylinder)</h3>
Given Data
Radius of can = 5 inches
Height of can = 10 inches
We know that the expression for the lateral surface area of a cylinder is given as
Lateral Surface area = 2πrh
Substitute our given Data
Lateral Surface area = 2*3.142*5*10
Lateral Surface area = 314.2 square inches
