The height and radius of a cylinder are 7.5 cm and 3.5 cm respectively. Find the ratio between the total surface area and curved surface area of the cylinder

Let r be the radius and h be the height of cylinder


h = 7.5 cm = cm


r = 3.5 cm = cm


total surface area = 2πrh + 2πr2


curved surface area = 2πrh


ratio of total surface area to curved surface area =


ratio =


ratio =


ratio = 1 +


ratio = 1 +


ratio = 1 +


ratio =


ratio =


Therefore, ratio between the total surface area and curved surface area of the cylinder is 22:15
