Answer:

Diameter of cylinder = 12 cm

Explanation:

Given:

Height of cylinder = 5 cm

Total surface area of cylinder = 3 x [Curved surface area of a cylinder]

Find:

Diameter of cylinder

Computation:

Total surface area of cylinder = 3 x [Curved surface area of a cylinder]

πr²h = 3[2πrh]

πr²h = 6πrh

Radius of cylinder = 6 cm

Diameter of cylinder = 2 x Radius of cylinder

Diameter of cylinder = 2 x 6

Diameter of cylinder = 12 cm
