An oblique cylinder is labeled with a height of 15 centimeters and radius 5 centimeters.
Find the surface area of the cylinder below. Use the approximation 3.14 for pi.
The surface area of an oblique cylinder is given by the formula:
Surface area = 2πr^2 + 2πrh
Given that the radius (r) is 5 centimeters and the height (h) is 15 centimeters, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Surface area = 2(3.14)(5^2) + 2(3.14)(5)(15)
Calculating this expression:
Surface area = 2(3.14)(25) + 2(3.14)(5)(15)
Surface area = 2(3.14)(25) + 2(3.14)(75)
Surface area = 2(78.5) + 2(235.5)
Surface area = 157 + 471
Surface area = 628
Therefore, the surface area of the oblique cylinder is approximately 628 square centimeters.
