Assessment: JAMB UTME - Mathematics - 2015 Subject: General Mathematics

Question 1 Report

Find the total surface area of a cylinder of base radius 5cm and length 7cm (π = 3.14)
Answer Details
The correct answer is 377.0cm^2. The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is given by: 2πr^2 + 2πrh where r is the radius of the base, h is the height of the cylinder, and π (pi) is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14. In this case, r = 5cm and h = 7cm, so we can plug these values into the formula: 2π * 5^2 + 2π * 5 * 7 = 2π * 25 + 2π * 35 = 50π + 70π = 120π = 377.0cm^2 (rounded to one decimal place) So the total surface area of the cylinder is 377.0cm^2.
