I AM GIVING YOU AN EXAMPLE:
FORMULA IS PERIMETER TIMES HEIGHT =LATERAL AREA
MULTIPLY THE PERIMETER TIMES THE FT.
EXAMPLE:
34FT. X 12FT.=408
MULTIPLY 34X12 TO GET 408
CIRCUMFERENCE IS PI (3.14X THE DIAMETER OF THE CIRCLE
DIAMETER IS 3CM., HEIGHT IS 8CM.,
MULTIPLY 3.14X3CM, C=9.42
FIND THE LATERAL USING THE FORMULA C TIMES(X) H
9.42CM X8 =LATERAL AREA
LATERAL AREA IS=75.36CM.
THIS SHOULD HELP YOU WITH YOUR PROBLEMS
