You can put this solution on YOUR website! The formula for the surface area is given by s={6r^2}+6rh
:
a. make h the subject of the relation
6r^2 + 6rh = s
Factor out 6r
6r(r+h) = s
r + h =
h = - r
:
b. find h if r=2 and s=100
h = -2
h = - 2
h = 8 - 2
h = 6
:
:
See if this checks out in the original formula; r=2 and h=6.3333
s = 6(2^2) + (6*2*6.3333)
s = 24 + 75.9996
s = 99.9996 ~ 100
