The area of base of a cylinder is 25π cm2. If the height of cylinder is 9 cm, then find the total surface area of cylinder.
A$$440 \, \text{cm}^2$$
B$$240 \, \text{cm}^2$$
C$$420 \, \text{cm}^2$$
D$$220 \, \text{cm}^2$$

correct answer is: 440 cm²
Explanation: The total surface area of a cylinder is calculated using the formula:

TSA=2πr2+2πrh

Given the area of the base πr2=25πcm2, we find r=5cm

With height h=9cm, the total surface area is:

TSA=2π(5)2+2π(5)(9)

TSA=50π+90π

TSA=140πcm2

TSA=≈440cm2

Thus, the correct answer is OPTION a.

  • OPTION a: Correct, as shown by the calculation.
  • OPTION b: Incorrect, too low.
  • OPTION c: Incorrect, too high.
  • OPTION d: Incorrect, too low.
