The curved surface area of a right circular cylinder of height 14 cm is 88 cm2 . Find the diameter of the base of the cylinder.

Solution
Let the radius of the base of the cylinder be r cm.
             h = 14 cm
Curved surface area = 88 cm2                 | Given
rightwards double arrow space space space space 2 πrh space space equals space 88
rightwards double arrow space space space space 2 cross times 22 over 7 cross times straight r cross times 14 equals 88
rightwards double arrow space space space space space straight r equals fraction numerator 88 cross times 7 over denominator 2 cross times 22 cross times 14 end fraction
rightwards double arrow space space space space space straight r equals 1
rightwards double arrow space space space space space 2 straight r space equals space 2
Hence, the diameter of the base of the cylinder is 2 cm.
