SSC GD Constable (English) - 25 Jan 2023 - Shift 4 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q41

If the radius of a cylinder is 7 m and its total surface area is 440 m2, then find the height of the cylinder. 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 3 m.

We know that,

T.S.A = 2πr (h + r)

given that, r = 7 m

⇒ 440 = 2 × 22/7 × 7 × (h + 7)

⇒ (440 × 7)/(2 × 22 × 7) = h + 7

⇒ 10 = h + 7

⇒ h = 10 - 7 = 3 m
