Part A
Find the lateral surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 2.5 meters and a height of 7 meters.
Use 3.14 for pi and round your answer to the nearest tenth.
The lateral surface area of a cylinder can be found using the formula:
Lateral surface area = 2πrh
where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.
Given:
Radius (r) = 2.5 meters
Height (h) = 7 meters
Using this information, we can substitute the values into the formula:
Lateral surface area = 2 * 3.14 * 2.5 * 7
Simplifying the equation:
Lateral surface area = 43.96 square meters
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the lateral surface area of the cylinder is approximately 44.0 square meters.

I apologize for the mistake. Let me correct the calculation:
Lateral surface area = 2πrh
Lateral surface area = 2 * 3.14 * 2.5 * 7
Lateral surface area = 2 * 3.14 * 17.5
Lateral surface area = 110.0 square meters
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the lateral surface area of the cylinder is approximately 110.0 square meters.
wrong
I apologize for the error in my previous response. Let's calculate the lateral surface area correctly this time.
The formula for the lateral surface area of a cylinder is given by:
Lateral surface area = 2πrh
Given:
Radius (r) = 2.5 meters
Height (h) = 7 meters
Substituting these values into the formula:
Lateral surface area = 2 * 3.14 * 2.5 * 7
Lateral surface area = 2 * 3.14 * 17.5
Lateral surface area = 110.0 square meters
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the lateral surface area of the cylinder is 110.0 square meters.
