Question

5. Claude is wrapping cylindrical bug spray containers in tissue paper to put them inside a box.

Each container has a height of 12.7 centimeters and a radius of 3 centimeters.

If he is wrapping a total of 5 bug spray containers, how many square

centimeters of tissue paper will he need?

Answer 1

`1197.42\ cm^2`

Explanation:

Given that,

The height of cylinder, h = 12.7 cm

The radius of the cylinder, r = 3 cm

The curved surface area of a cylinder for 5 bug spray is given by :

`C=5* 2\pi rh\\\\C=10* (22)/(7)* 3* 12.7\\\\C=1197.42\ cm^2`

So,
`1197.42\ cm^2` of tissue papers will be needed.
