A 3 by 4 inches rectangle is revolved about its shorter side to generate a right circular cylinder.
Find the volume and lateral area of the generated cylinder.
:
This would generate a cylinder with a radius of 4" and a height of 3"
V+=+pi%2A4%5E2%2A3
V = 150.8 cu/in
Lateral area is the circumference * the height
LA+=+2%2Api%2A4%2A3
LA = 75.4 in
