Question: If the lateral surface of a cylinder is $ 94.2,cm^{2} $ and its height is 5 cm, then find radius of its base. [use it $ \pi =3.14 $ ] [IBPS (SO) 2014]
Options:
A) 5 cm
B) 7 cm
C) 3 cm
D) 9 cm
E) 4 cm
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- Lateral surface area of cylinder $ 94.2,cm^{2} $
Height = 5 cm, Radius = ?
We know lateral surface area of cylinder $ =2\pi rh $
$ 94.2=2\times 3.14\times r\times 5 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ 94.2=31.4\times r $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ r=3,cm $
