Cylinder A has the volume 8π cm^3 and the height 2 cm. Cylinder B is a similar shape with a volume of 216 cm^3. i) find the linear scale factor. ii) find the surface area of cylinder B

i) Linear scale factor cubed = volume scale factor = V B /V A = 216π/8π = 27 LSF 3 =27 LSF = 3 ii) SA B = 2πr B 2 + 2πr B H B Find H and r for B H B = LSF*H A = 6 cm V B = πr B 2 H B = 216π = πr B 2 6 => ...
