Determine Surface Area of a Cylinder Class 10 Practical
Objective
To find the curved surface area and total surface area of a cylinder experimentally.
Prerequisite Knowledge
- Area of a rectangle.
- Area of a circle.
- Concept of surface area of a cylinder.
You can also download NCERT Maths Class 10 Solutions to help you to revise complete syllabus and score more marks in your examinations.
Materials Required
A white chart paper, a cylinder made of paper, a pair of scissors, a ruler, fevicol.
Procedure
- Remove the top and bottom circles of the cylinder.
- Make a vertical cut in the curved surface and lay the cylinder flat to get a rectangle as shown.
- Measure the length and breadth of the rectangle so formed.
Observation
- Top and bottom of cylinders are circles.
Therefore Area of 2 circles = \(\pi { r }^{ 2 }\), where r is the radius of base circle of cylinder - Length of rectangle = circumference of base of cylinder = \(2\pi \)r
- Breadth of rectangle = height = h
- Area of rectangle = \(\pi { r }\)x h = curved surface area of cylinder
- Total surface area of cylinder =\(2\Pi rh\) + \(\pi { r }^{ 2 }\)
= \(2\Pi r(h+r)\)
Result
Curved surface area of a cylinder = \(2\Pi rh\)
Total surface area of a cylinder = \(2\Pi r\) (h+r)
Learning Outcome
This activity’ clears the concept of curved surface area (lateral surface area) and total surface area of a cylinder.
Activity Time
Calculate the total surface area in terms of radius, where ‘tf represents the diameter of the cylinder.
