Chapter: Surface Areas & Volumes | Curved & Total Surface Area of Cylinder

Exercise 13.2 of class 9 NCERT math text books comprises 11 questions. This exercise focuses on curved surface area and total surface area of right circular cylinders. Video solutions to questions 3, 4, 9, and 10 are provided below. Detailed explanation to all 11 questions are provided below.

What is formula of curved surface area of cylinder? How to find the curved surface area of a cylinder?

The formula to compute the curved surface area of cylinder is 2πrh, where 'r' is the radius of the base of the right circular cylinder and 'h' is the height of the cylinder.

The curved surface area of cylinder is the product of the circumference and the height.

What is the formula of total surface area of cylinder? How to find the surface area of a cylinder?

The formula to compute the total surface area of cylinder is 2πr(r + h), where 'r' is the base radius of the right circular cylinder and 'h' is the height of the right circular cylinder.

The total surface area of cylinder, TSA, is the sum of the curved surface area of the cylinder and the area of the two circles - one at the top and the other at the bottom of the cylinder.
TSA of cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr² = 2πr(r + h)

Question 1

(i) the lateral or curved surface area of a closed cylindrical petrol storage tank that is 4.2 m in diameter and 4.5 m high
(ii) how much steel was actually used, if [1/12] of the steel actually used was wasted in making the tank.
Question 10

In the adjacent figure (figure 13.12 in class 9 NCERT book page 217), you see the frame of a lampshade. It is to be covered with a decorative cloth. The frame has a base diameter of 20 cm and height of 30 cm. A margin of 2.5 cm is to be given for folding it over the top and bottom of the frame. Find how much cloth is required for covering the lampshade
Question 11

The students of a Vidyalaya were asked to participate in a competition for making and decorating pen holders in the shape of a cylinder with a base, using cardboard. Each penholder was to be of radius 3 cm and height 10.5 cm. The Vidyalaya was to supply the competitors with cardboard. If there were 35 competitors, how much cardboard was required to be bought for the competition?
