The diameter of a cylinder is 28 cm and its height is 20 cm. The total surface area of the cylinder is
Given: Diameter of the base of a cylinder is 28 cm.
Its height is 20 cm.
Volume of the Cylinder is given by: 2πr(r + h). (here r and h are radius and diameter respectively)
Let S be the Surface area of the cylinder.
∴ V = 2πr(r + h)
⇒ S = 2 × π × () × [(
) + 20] (∵ 28 is the diameter and
is the radius)
⇒ V = 2 × π × 14 × (14 + 20) = 2 × π × 14 × 24
⇒ V = 2992 cm2
∴ The Surface area of the cylinder is 2992 cm2
