3. A fruit can has diameter 5.8 cm and height 10.5 cm. A plastic label wraps around the can. What is the area of the plastic label?
To find the area of the plastic label, we need to find the circumference of the circular base of the can and multiply it by the height of the can.
Circumference = π x diameter
Circumference = 3.14 x 5.8cm
Circumference = 18.212 cm
Therefore, the area of the plastic label is:
Area = Circumference x Height
Area = 18.212cm x 10.5cm
Area = 191.223 cm²
Therefore, the area of the plastic label is 191.223 cm².
