SSC GD Constable (English) - 24 Jan 2023 - Shift 4 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q46

Find the total surface area of a cylinder whose radius is 7 cm and curved surface area is 3520. (use π = 22/7)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The Correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 3828  cm2.

The total surface area of cylinder = 2πr(r + h)

r = radius and h = height

 Curved surface area (CSA) of cylinder = 2πrh

⇒ 2πrh = 3520

⇒ 2 × 22/7 × 7 × h = 3520

⇒ h = (3520)/(22 × 2) = 80 cm

The total surface area of cylinder = 2πr(r + h)

⇒ 2 × 22/7 × 7(7 + 80) = 2 × 22/7 × 7 × 87 = 3828 cm2
