The base radius and height of a right circular cylinder is in the ratio of 1:7. If the volume is 176 cm3^3, the total surface area of the right circular cylinder is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Let r=kr = k and h=7kh = 7k. Volume =πr2h=7πk3=176= \pi r^2 h = 7\pi k^3 = 176.

With π=22/7\pi = 22/7: 22k3=17622k^3 = 176, so k3=8k^3 = 8 and k=2k = 2. Thus r=2r = 2, h=14h = 14.

Total surface area =2πr(r+h)=2×227×2×16=14087= 2\pi r(r+h) = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 2 \times 16 = \frac{1408}{7} cm2^2.
