The volume and curved surface area of a cylinder are 1650cm^3 and 660cm^2 respectively.
\n" ); document.write( " Find the radius and height of the cylinder.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let r = the radius
\n" ); document.write( "let h = the height
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Volume: \"pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah\" = 1650
\n" ); document.write( "Curved surface: \"2pi%2Ar%2Ah\" = 660
\n" ); document.write( "make both equations = to h
\n" ); document.write( "h = \"1650%2F%28pi%2Ar%5E2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "h = \"660%2F%282pi%2Ar%29\" = \"330%2F%28pi%2Ar%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "therefore
\n" ); document.write( "\"330%2F%28pi%2Ar%29\" = \"1650%2F%28pi%2Ar%5E2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by \"pi%2Ar\" and you have
\n" ); document.write( "330 = \"1650%2Fr\"
\n" ); document.write( "r = \"1650%2F330\"
\n" ); document.write( "r = 5 cm is the radius
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the height
\n" ); document.write( "h - \"330%2F%28pi%2A5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "h - \"330%2F15.7%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "h = 21.0 cm is the height
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check this by finding the volume with these values
\n" ); document.write( "V = \"pi%2A5%5E2%2A21\"
\n" ); document.write( "V = 1649.33, a slight error from rounding off\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
