Question:

What is the curved surface area (in cm2) of a right circular cylinder whose height and diameter are 10 cm and 8 cm respectively?

Options:

20π

80 π

160 π

40 π

Correct Answer:

80 π

Explanation:

We know that,

The curved surface area of a right circular cylinder = 2πrh

We have,

Diameter = 8 cm

Radius = \(\frac{ 8 }{2}\) = 4 cm 

The curved surface area of a right circular cylinder = = 2π × 4 × 10 = 80 π cm2
