You can put this solution on YOUR website! The volume of a solid cylinder is 270cm^3 and its curved surface area is 135cm^2. Find the radius of the cylinder.
(use pi-22/7)
:
Curved surface:
2*pi*h = 135
:
135 is half of 270, therefore:
Vol = twice curved area
pi*r^2*h = 2(2*pi*r*h)
pi*r^2*h = 4*pi*r*h
:
Divide both sides by pi*r*h
r = 4
:
:
To verify solution find h, using curved area equation
2*(22/7)*4*h = 135
(176/7)h = 135
:
Multiply equation by 7
176h = 945
h - 945/176
h = 5.37
Find the volume
pi*16*5.37 = 269.89 ~ 270
