The lateral face of a cylinder is a rectangle with a height equal to the height of the cylinder and a width equal to the circumference of the base of the cylinder.
Circumference of the base = 2 * pi * radius
Radius = diameter / 2 = 10 / 2 = 5
Circumference of the base = 2 * 3.14 * 5 = 31.4 inches
Area of the lateral face = height * circumference of the base
Area = 3 * 31.4 = 94.2 square inches
Therefore, the area of the lateral face of the cylinder is approximately 94 square inches.
Determine the area of the lateral face of the cylinder round answer to the nearest whole number use 3.14 for pi
The cylinders with is 10 in in the cylinder's height is 3 in
