You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If h is the altitude of a right circular cylinder and r the radius,
\n" ); document.write( " Find the ratio of h to r if the lateral area is known to be 5 times the sum of the areas of the bases.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Lateral area = 5 times the sum of the base areas
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%2Api%2Ar%2Ah\"$ = $\"5%282%2Api%2Ar%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by $\"2%2Api%2Ar\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%282%2Api%2Ar%2Ah%29%2F%282%2Api%2Ar%29\"$ = $\"%285%282%2Api%2Ar%5E2%29%29%2F%282%2Api%2Ar%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Cancel and you have
\n" ); document.write( "h = 5r
\n" ); document.write( "Ratio of h:r = 5:1 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
