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
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
