Question 1023634: The base of a cylinder has a radius of 9 centimeters. The cylinder is 12 centimeters tall.


What is the approximate lateral area of the cylinder? Use 3.14 for π and round to the nearest whole number.

The formula to find the area of a circle is
A=pi x radius ^2
A= 3.14(9)^2
A=254.34
Now, round to the nearest whole number.
A=254.
The approximate area is 254 centimeters
Hope this helped :)
