The ratio between the curved surface area and the total surface area of a right circular cylinder is 1:2. Find the volume of the cylinder, if its total surface area is 616 cm2. |

Answer» Total surface area (T.S.A) = 616 cm2 Let r be the radius of cylinder and h be the radius of cylinder. As per given statement: (curved surface area / (total surface area) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) or CSA = \(\frac{1}{2}\)TSA CSA = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 616 = 308 ⇒ CSA = 308 cm2 Now, TSA = 2πrh + 2πr2 ⇒ 616 = CSA + 2πr2 ⇒ 616 = 308 + 2πr2 ⇒ 2πr2 = 616 – 308 ⇒ 2πr2 = 308 ⇒ r2 = 308/2π ⇒ r2 = 49 or r = 7 cm …(1) As, CSA = 308 cm2 2πrh = 308 ⇒ 2 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 7 x h = 308 (using (1)) ⇒ h = 7 cm Now, Volume of cylinder = πr2h = \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 7 x 7 x 7 = 1078 Therefore, Volume of cylinder is 1078 cm2. |
