The curved surface area of the cylinder, given the circumference and the height, is 24.1 cm²
How to calculate the curved surface area of the cyclinder?
We shall begin by calculating the radius. Details below:
- Circumference (C) = 4 cm
- Radius (r) = ?
C = 2πr
4 = 2 × 3.14 × r
4 = 6.28 × r
Divide both sides by 6.28
r = 4 / 6.28
r = 0.64 cm
Finally, we shall calculate the curved surface area of the cylinder. Details below:
- Radius (r) = 0.64 cm
- Height (h) = 6 cm
- Curved surface area of cylinder =?
Curved surface area of cylinder = 2πrh
= 2 × 3.14 × 0.64 × 6
= 24.1 cm²
Thus, the curved surface area of the cylinder is 24.1 cm²
