Diameter is 2 and Height is 15
To find the lateral area of a cylinder, you can use the formula:
Lateral Area = height x circumference of the base
First, find the circumference of the base using the formula for the circumference of a circle:
Circumference = π x diameter
Given that the diameter is 2, the circumference is:
Circumference = 3.14 x 2 = 6.28
Now, multiply the circumference by the height to find the lateral area:
Lateral Area = 6.28 x 15 = 94.20 square centimeters
Therefore, the lateral area of the cylinder is 94.20 square centimeters.
