SSC CGL Tier II - Quant - 15 Nov 2020 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q94

The height of a solid cylinder is 30 cm and the diameter of its base is 10 cm. two idendical conical holes each of radius 5 cm and height 12 cm are drilled out. What is the surface area ( in cm2) of the remaining solid?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 430 π

Concept

Remaining surface area = Surface Area of the figure + No. of Area of new surface drilled out 

Application

l2 = h2 + r2

l2 = 122 + 52

l2 = 144 + 25

l = 13 cm

Since there are two new cones drilled out and we can surely touch them. The surface are of the remaining firgure can be calculated as

The surface area of the remaining figure = surface area of cylinder + 2 × surface area of the cone

2πrh + 2πrl

2πr(h + l)

2π × 5(30 + 13)

430π
