5.4 <strong>Surface</strong> <strong>Area</strong> of a Cylinder<br />
cylinder<br />
• a 3-D object with 2 parallel and congruent circular bases<br />
Congruent means the<br />
exact same size.<br />
Working Example 1: Determine the <strong>Surface</strong> <strong>Area</strong> of a Right Cylinder<br />
cylinder<br />
a) Estimate the surface area of the can.<br />
11 cm<br />
Solution<br />
7.6 cm<br />
<strong>Surface</strong> area of can = area of 2 circles + area of 1 rectangle<br />
To estimate, use approximate values:<br />
d ≈ 8, so r = d ÷ 2<br />
7.6 cm 7.6 cm<br />
w = 11 cm<br />
≈<br />
l = circumference<br />
π ≈ 3<br />
w ≈ 10<br />
length of rectangle = circumference<br />
l = π × d<br />
<strong>Area</strong> of circle = π × r 2<br />
<strong>Area</strong> of rectangle = l × w<br />
C = π × d<br />
≈ 3 ×<br />
≈ 3 × ×<br />
≈<br />
2<br />
= circumference × w<br />
≈ (π × d) × w<br />
≈ 3 × 8 × 10<br />
≈ cm 2<br />
There are 2 circles: 2 × 48 =<br />
Estimated surface area ≈ area of 2 circles + area of 1 rectangle<br />
≈ +<br />
≈<br />
The estimated surface area is cm 2 .<br />
