Question
Given a cylindrical tank, in which situation will you find surface area and in which situation volume.
- To find how much it can hold
- Number of cement bags required to plaster it
- To find the number of smaller tanks that can be filled with water from it.
Solution
- We must determine the cylindrical tank's volume in order to determine how much a cylinder can contain.
- We must determine the cylindrical tank's surface area in order to determine how many cement bags will be needed to plaster the tank.
- We must calculate the volumes of the big cylindrical tank and one tiny tank in order to determine which smaller tanks can be filled with water from the larger tank.
