Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem in the image asks to calculate the surface area of a composite shape, which seems to be a cylinder with two hemispherical ends. It also specifies to use .
Given dimensions:
- Length of the cylinder (without hemispheres) = 35 cm
- Radius of the base (and hemisphere) = 7 cm
Step-by-Step Solution:
-
Surface Area of the Cylinder (without the hemispheres): The surface area of a cylinder (lateral area) is given by: where:
- (radius),
- (height of the cylindrical part).
Substituting the values:
-
Surface Area of the Two Hemispheres: The total surface area of two hemispheres is the same as the surface area of a full sphere. The surface area of a sphere is given by: where .
Substituting the values:
-
Total Surface Area: The total surface area is the sum of the lateral area of the cylinder and the surface area of the two hemispheres:
Final Answer:
The surface area of the composite shape is 2156 cm².
