    In a right circular cylinder, 4 times the sum of the areas of its two circular faces is twice the area of its curved surface. The height of a right circular cylinder is 6 m. Then the radius of the base is:

    ক)
    3 m
    খ)
    2 m
    গ)
    6 m
    ঘ)
    1.5 m
    ঙ)
    3.5 m

    Explanation

    Given that, 4 times the sum of the areas of two circular faces is twice the area of its curved surface. The height of a right circular cylinder is 6 m. we know that, Area of curved surface of the cylinder = 2 π r h Area of right circular face = π r 2 Then, 4 × Sum of the areas of its two circular faces = 2 × Area of curved surface of the cylinder ⇒ 4 × (π r 2 + π r 2 ) = 2 ×2 π r h ⇒ 8 π r 2 = 4 π r h ⇒ 2 r = h Or, r = h/2 = 6/2 = 3 m.
