Question

A soup can is 4 inches tall with a2.5 inch diameter. Find its surfacearea. Use 3.14 for pi

Answer 1

Answer:

The surface area is 41.21 sq. in

Explanation:

The soup can has height h = 4 in

The diameter is 2.5

The radius is (1/2)(2.5) = 1.25

π = 3.14

Using these, we have:

SA = 2π r(r+h)

= 2 * 3.14 * 1.25(1.25 + 4)

= 41.21
