SSC GD Constable (English) - 17 Jan 2023 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q54

If the ratio of the radius and height of a cylinder is 3 : 2 and radius is 21 cm, then the curved surface area (in cm2 ) is: ( Use π = 22/7)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 1848.

The ratio of the radius and height of a cylinder is 3 : 2 

Radius = 21 cm

⇒ 3x = 21 

⇒ x = 7 cm

so, height = 2x = 14

The curved surface area = 2πrh

⇒ 2 × 22/7 × 21 × 14 = 1848 cm2
