What is a cylinder?

'A cylinder is a three-dimensional solid that holds two parallel bases joined by a curved surface, at a fixed distance.'

According to the given problem,

The size of the cover of the tank = area of  the circle of the tank                                (approximately)

r = 28 feet

Area of the circle = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

                             = [tex]\pi *28^{2}[/tex]

                             = [tex]2463.01[/tex]

Hence, we have concluded that in order to cover the tank, which is a circular area, the area of the cover has to be approximately 2463.01 square feet.
