What is the width of the cylindrical ring?
Answered by Steve
a = pi(8^2 - 5^2) = 122.52

You were correct, if they are asking about the area of the top or bottom surface of the cylinder.

However, maybe they are asking about the area of the curved surface. In that case, it would be

2pi(8-5)h

and you'd need to know the height of the ring.
