What is the surface area of a cylinder that is 5 centimeters high and has a diameter of 1.5 centimeters?
A. 7.5π cm^2
B. 8.625π cm^2
C. 10.5 π cm^2
D. 19.55π cm^2

Respuesta :

The surface area of cylinder is 8.625[tex]\pi[/tex] [tex]cm^{2}[/tex], if the cylinder has 5 centimeters high and 1.5 cm of diameter.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

          Cylinder has a 5 centimeters height

          Diameter of the cylinder is 1.5 centimeters

Step:1

          Formula for the surface area of cylinder is,

                     [tex]A=2\pi r h + 2\pi r^{2}[/tex]......................................(1)

          Where,

                   h - Height of cylinder

                   r - Radius of cylinder

        From the values of h and r,

                   [tex]r=\frac{d}{2}[/tex]

                      = [tex]\frac{1.5}{2}[/tex]

                   r  = 0.75 cm

       From the formula,

                      = ( 2 × [tex]\pi[/tex] × 0.75 × 5 ) + ( 2 × [tex]\pi[/tex] × [tex]0.75^{2}[/tex] )

                      = ( 7.5 [tex]\pi[/tex] ) + ( 1.125 [tex]\pi[/tex] )

                  A = 8.625[tex]\pi[/tex] [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Result:

        The surface area of cylinder is 8.625[tex]\pi[/tex] [tex]cm^{2}[/tex], if the cylinder has 5 centimeters high and 1.5 cm of diameter.
