Question

In the diagram below.

OATMEAL
14 in.
5 in.
Kamala will not cover the container's
circular bases. She will need enough
construction paper to cover an area
of at least

Answer 1

C. 439.6 in.²

Explanation:

The container is a cylinder.

Since the two circular bases won't be covered, therefore:

The least construction paper needed to cover the remaining surface = curved surface area of the cylinder

= 2πrh

r = 5 in.

h = 14 in.

Plug in the values

Curved surface area = 2×π×5×14 = 439.6 in.²
