SSC CGL - 26 Sep 2024 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q60

If the radius and height of a right circular cylinder are 21 cm and 5 cm, respectively, then the total surface area of cylinder is (use π=227\pi =\frac{22}{7} ):

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e 3432 cm2.

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

Where r is the radius, h is the height.

Radius of the cylinder (r) = 21 cm

Height of the cylinder (h) = 5 cm

Total surface area = 2 × (22/7) × 21(21 + 5) = 2 × (22/7) × 21 × 26 = 3432 cm2

Therefore, the total surface area of the cylinder is 3432 cm2.
