Algebra.Com's Answer #636314 by Cromlix(4381) You can put this solution on YOUR website! hi there, \n" ); document.write( "Surface area = Pi x radius^2 + (Pi x diameter) x height. \n" ); document.write( "Surface area = Pi x 7^2 + (Pi x 14)x 8 \n" ); document.write( "Surface area = 505.80 cm^2 \n" ); document.write( "The surface area of the can is found by \n" ); document.write( "using the circumference of the can as \n" ); document.write( "one side of the rectangle that is the \n" ); document.write( "opened can. The other side is the height. \n" ); document.write( "You then use Pi x r^2 for the end of the can. \n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-) \n" ); document.write( " |
