Question

Bisecting Bakery sells cylindrical round cakes. The most popular cake at the bakery is the red velvet cake. It has a radius of 17 centimeters and a height of 13 centimeters.

If everything but the circular bottom of the cake was iced, how many square centimeters of icing is needed for one cake? Use 3.14 for π and round to the nearest square centimeter.

3,203 cm2
2,295 cm2
1,020 cm2
731 cm2

Answer 1

283 cm^2

hi your welcome

Answer 2

Explanation:

radius = r = 17

height = h = 13

First calculate the total surface area =

2πr (r + h)

2 (3.14) 17 (17 + 13)

2 (3.14) 17 (30)

6.28 (17)(30)

106.76 (30)

3202.80 cm²

Then subtract the area of the bottom base of the cake:

Base of the cake is the area of the round base

π r² = 3.14 (17)²

3.14 (289) = 907.46 cm²

Subtract area of base from total surface area:

I am rounding:

3203 - 908 = 2295 cm²
