To find the area of the lateral face of a cylinder, you need to find the circumference of the base and multiply it by the height of the cylinder.
Given that the cylinder:
- radius = 5 inches
- height = 12 inches
First, calculate the circumference of the base:
circumference = 2πr
circumference = 2 * 3.14 * 5
circumference = 31.4 inches
Then, calculate the area of the lateral face:
area = circumference * height
area = 31.4 * 12
area = 376.8 square inches
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the area of the lateral face of the cylinder is 377 square inches.
Therefore, there is no exact match in the given responses, but the closest option is 251 square inches.
Determine the area of the lateral face of the cylinder below. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use 3.14 for π.
