Find the surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 5 inches and a height of 10 inches. Use the approximation 3.14 for pi.(1 point)
The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is 2πrh + 2πr².
Given that the radius (r) is 5 inches and the height (h) is 10 inches, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Surface area = 2π(5)(10) + 2π(5)²
= 100π + 50π
= 150π
Using the approximation 3.14 for π, we can calculate:
Surface area ≈ 150 (3.14)
≈ 471
Therefore, the surface area of the cylinder is approximately 471 square inches.
