The curve surface area of a cylinder, 5cm high is 110cm 2. Find the radius of its base. [Take (pi = frac{22}{7})]
  • A.
    2.6cm
  • B.
    3.5cm
  • C.
    3.6cm
  • D.
    7.0cm
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

Curved surface area of cylinder = 2(pi)rh
110 = 2 x (frac{22}{7}) x r x 5
r = (frac{110 times 7}{44 times 5})
= 3.5cm
