Question

If the lateral surface area of a cylinder is 775.8 cm$^2$ and its height is 24 cm, then find its volume. (Use $\pi = 3.14$ and round off to two decimal places.)

The correct answer is
1996.63 cm$^3$

The problem asks for the volume of a cylinder given its lateral surface area (LSA) and height.

Finding Cylinder Radius from LSA

We are given:

  • Lateral Surface Area (LSA) = 775.8 cm$^2$
  • Height (h) = 24 cm
  • Value of $\pi = 3.14$

The formula for the Lateral Surface Area of a cylinder is:

LSA = $2 \pi r h$

We can use this formula to find the radius ($r$):

$775.8 = 2 \times 3.14 \times r \times 24$

$775.8 = 150.72 \times r$

Now, solve for $r$:

$r = \frac{775.8}{150.72}$

$r \approx 5.1473$ cm

Calculating Cylinder Volume

The formula for the Volume ($V$) of a cylinder is:

V = $\pi r^2 h$

Substitute the calculated radius ($r$) and the given height ($h$):

V = $3.14 \times (5.1473)^2 \times 24$

V = $3.14 \times 26.495 \times 24$

V = $3.14 \times 635.88$

V $\approx 1996.6332$ cm$^3$

Rounding the Volume

The question requires rounding the volume to two decimal places.

Volume $\approx 1996.63$ cm$^3$
