The soup can is 6 cm tall and has a radius of 3.5 cm. if you were to pull the label off the can in one complete piece, what would the area of the label be? use 22 7 for pi. a) 22 sq. cm b) 42 sq. cm c) 132 sq. cm d) 154 sq. cm

The answer is C. This is because the area of a cylinder can be represented with the formula:  Then, you substitute 6 for h, the height, and 3.5 for r, the radius and solve, giving you the answer, 208.92 sq. cm. Then, you have to subtract the two circular sides. You find the area of one circle and multiply by 2. One circle is 38.48 sq. cm and doubled is 76.96 sq. cm. Then you subtract 208.92-76.96 giving you about 132 sq. cm.
