Question

The radius of base and the height of a cylinder are in the ratio 2 is to 3 if it volume is 1617 cm cube find the total surface area of the cylinder

Open in App
Solution

Let the Radius and base of the cylinder be 2x and 3x cm respectively.

Volue of cylinder = πr2h = 1617 cm3 (given)

or 22/7*(2x)2 *3x = 1617 cm3

x3 = (1617*7)/22*4*3 = 343/8

Take the cube root of both the sides.

X = 7/2 = 3.5 So Radius = 2*3.5 = 7 cm and Height = 3.5*3 = 10.5 cm.

Total Surface area of cylinder = 2πr(r+h) = 2*22/7*7(7+10.5) = 2*22*17.5 = 770 cm square.
