Take Free Practice Test On 2026 JAMB UTME, Post UTME, WAEC SSCE, GCE, NECO SSCE
  • A 17.8cm2
  • B 15.8cm2
  • C 75.4cm2
  • D 54.7cm2
  • E \(377.1cm^{2}\)
Correct Answer: Option E
Explanation:
The total surface area of a cylinder = 2πrl + 2πr2
= 2πr(l + r)
= 2 x 3.14 x 5(7+5)
2 x 3.14 x 12 x 5
= 377.1cm (1DP)
