Solution

The correct option is C

S1 and S2 are true


Upon wrapping a cylinder, the curved surface is a circle. Since the length of the rectangular sheet is the dimension being wrapped, the length of the cylinder equals the circumference of the circle. Therefore area of rectangular sheet required equals l × b = 2πrh
