Question

Solve S=2PIr(h+r) for h

Answer 1

When it asks to solve for h, they just want you to isolate the h from everything else:

S = 2Plr(h + r)

First, divide both sides by 2Plr:

$\frac{S}{2Plr}$ = h + r

Now, subtract r from both sides:

$\frac{S}{2Plr}$ - r = h

Therefore, h = $\frac{S}{2Plr}$ - r.

Hope this helps! :)
