AL=2πrh

A = 2 * 3.14 * 3.2 * 10.2
1. C
2. B
3. A
4. C
5. D
The approximate area of the label is found by calculating the lateral surface area of the cylinder.

AL = 2πrh

AL = 2 * 3.14 * 3.2 * 10.2

AL ≈ 205.08 cm^2

Therefore, the approximate area of the label is approximately 205.08 cm^2.

The correct answer is c.) 205.08 cm^2.
