The ratio of the total surface area to the lateral surface area of a cylinder with base radius 80 cm and height 20 cm is

Given: Radius and height of the Cylinder are 80cm and 20cm respectively.


Lateral Surface area of a Cylinder is : 2πrh


Let S1 be the Lateral surface area of the Cylinder


S1 = 2πrh


S1 = 2 × π × 80 × 20 = 3200π


Total Surface area of a Cylinder is : 2πr(r + h)


Let S2 be the Total surface area of the Cylinder


S2 = 2πr(r + h)


S2 = 2 × π × 80 × (80 + 20) = 16000π


Ratio of Total surface area to Lateral surface area id S2 : S1


S2 : S1 = 16000π : 3200π


S2 : S1 = 5:1


The ratio of the total surface area to the lateral surface area of a cylinder is 5:1
