Find:

(i)    the lateral or curved surface area of a closed cylindrical petrol storage tank that is 4.2 m in diameter and 4.5 m high.

Solution

(i)     2r =  4.2 m
therefore space space space space space space space straight r equals fraction numerator 4.2 over denominator 2 end fraction space straight m equals 2.1 space straight m comma
space space space space space space space space space space space
          h = 4.5 m
Lateral or curved surface area = 2πrh
            equals 2 cross times 22 over 7 cross times 2.1 cross times 4.5 equals 59.4 space straight m squared
