A cylinder of base radius 4cm is open at one end . If the ratio of the area of its base to that of its curved surface is 1:4, calculate the height of the cylinder
-
A.
1cm
-
B.
2cm
-
C.
4cm
-
D.
8cm
-
E.
16cm
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
r= 4cm; base area = \(\pi\)r2; Curve S.A = 2\(\pi\)rh
\(\frac{base area}{curved area}\) = 1/4; \(\pi\)/2\(\pi\)rh
=h = \(\frac{4 x 4cm}{2}\)
h= 8cm
