What is the total surface area of a closed cylinder of height 10cm and diameter 7cm? [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]

  • A. 77cm2
  • B. 227cm2
  • C. 297cm2
  • D. 374cm2

Correct Answer: C. 297cm2

Explanation

T.S.A of s closed cylinder = \(2\pi r(r+h)\\

=\frac{2}{1}\times \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{7}{2}\left(\frac{7}{2}+\frac{10}{1}\right)=\frac{22}{1}\left(\frac{27}{2}\right)=27 \times 11=297cm^2\)
