Mensuration:
Mensuration is the branch of mathematics
which concerns itself with the measurement of Lengths, areas & volume of
different geometrical shapes or figures.
Surface area:
The surface area of a solid is the sum of
the areas of the plane or curved faces of the solid.
It is measured in square units such as
square centimetre (cm²) and square metre (m²).
Whenever we talk about a total surface area
of a cylinder the cylinder must be closed at both the ends by two circular
regions or it should be a cylindrical solid object.
Total surface area of a solid cylinder=
curved surface area + sum of the areas of two circular ends of the cylinder
= 2πrh+ 2πr²
Total surface area of a solid cylinder=
2πr(h+r)
The lateral surface area of the curved
surface area of a cylinder= 2πrh
==========================================================
Solution:
Given:
Diameter of cylindrical container(d) = 14 cm
Radius of
cylindrical container (r) = 7 cm
Height of
cylindrical container (h)= 20 cm
Height of the
label (h) = 20 –(2 +2)= 20 – 4= 16
h= 16 cm
Curved surface
area of label = 2πrh
= 2 ×
22/7× 7× 16
= 44× 16
= 704 cm²
Hence, the
area of the label = 704 cm²
