Find the lateral surface area of the following cylinder.

radius: 3cm
length: 9cm

1 answer

The lateral surface area of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula:

Lateral Surface Area = 2 * π * radius * height

Given that the radius is 3 cm and the length (height) is 9 cm:

Lateral Surface Area = 2 * π * 3 cm * 9 cm
Lateral Surface Area = 54π cm^2
Lateral Surface Area ≈ 169.65 cm^2

Therefore, the lateral surface area of the given cylinder is approximately 169.65 cm^2.
