Text: Show that the area of the lateral surface of a right circular cylinder, whose altitude is h and whose base has a radius r, is 2πrh.
Added by Keith M.
Step 1
To find the area of the lateral surface, we need to find the circumference of one of the bases and multiply it by the height of the cylinder. Show more…

The surface area of a cylinder is given by the formula SA = 2πr^2 + 2πrh, where r is the radius of the base of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. Solve the formula for h in the space given below. Show all the steps.
