In this pdf, we will be learning about the surface area of cylinders. The surface area S of a cylinder is the sum of the areas of the bases and the lateral surface.
1. English Spanish 6.3 Surface Areas of Cylinders How can you find the surface area of S STATE a cylinder? STANDARDS MA.7.G.2.1 1 ACTIVITY: Finding Area Work with a partner. Use a cardboard cylinder. ● Talk about how you can find the area of the outside of the roll. ● Use a ruler to estimate the area of the outside of the roll. Cut ● Cut the roll and press it out flat. Then find the area of the flat- tened cardboard. How close is your estimate to the actual area? Base r Lateral h The surface area of a cylinder is the sum of surface the areas of the bases and the lateral surface. Base 2 ACTIVITY: Finding Surface Area Work with a partner. ● Trace the top and bottom of a can on paper. Cut out the two shapes. ● Cut out a long paper rectangle. Make the width the same as the height of the can. Wrap the rectangle around the can. Cut off the excess paper so the edges just meet. ● Make a net for the can. Name the shapes in the net. ● How are the dimensions of the rectangle related to the dimensions of the can? ● Explain how to use the net to find the surface area of the can. 262 Chapter 6 Surface Areas of Solids

4. English Spanish EXAMPLE 2 Finding Surface Area How much paper is used for the label on 1 in. the can of peas? Find the lateral surface area of the cylinder. 2 in. Do not include the area of S = 2π rh the bases in the formula. = 2π (1)(2) Substitute. = 4 π ≈ 12.56 Multiply. About 12.56 square inches of paper is used for the label. EXAMPLE 3 Real-Life Application You earn $0.01 for recycling the can in Example 2. How much can you 2 in. expect to earn for recycling the tomato can? Assume that the recycle value is proportional to the surface area. Find the surface area of each can. Tomatoes Peas S = 2π r + 2π rh 2 S = 2π r 2 + 2π rh 5.5 in. = 2π (2)2 + 2π (2)(5.5) = 2π (1)2 + 2π (1)(2) = 8 π + 22π = 2π + 4 π = 30π = 6π Use a proportion to find the recycle value x of the tomato can. surface area 30 π in.2 6π in.2 —=— x $0.01 recycle value ⋅ ⋅ 30π 0.01 = x 6 π Use Cross Products Property. 5 ⋅ 0.01 = x Divide each side by 6π. 0.05 = x Simplify. You can expect to earn $0.05 for recycling the tomato can. 2. WHAT IF? In Example 3, the height of the can of peas Exercises 11–13 is doubled. a. Does the amount of paper used in the label double? b. Does the recycle value double? Explain. Section 6.3 Surface Areas of Cylinders 265
