Answer:
[tex]A = 329.7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]h = 15[/tex] --- height
[tex]d = 7[/tex] --- diameter
Required
Paper needed to cover the sides
To do this, we simply calculate the surface area of the cylinder (without considering the top and bottom)
This is calculated as:
[tex]A = 2\pi rh[/tex]
Where
[tex]r = \frac{d}{2}[/tex]
[tex]r = \frac{7}{2}= 3.5[/tex]
The formula becomes
[tex]A = 2 * 3.14 *3.5 *15[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]A = 329.7[/tex]
