Question 63

What is the volume of the cylinder (in cubic metre)?
(I) The sum of height and radius of the cylinder is 24m. The total surface area of the cylinder is 2112 sq. m.
(II) LCM and HCF of the numerical values of the radius and height of the cylinder are 70 and 2 respectively. The square of numerical values of the radius of the cylinder is 96 more than the square of the numerical value of the height of the cylinder.

Solution

Let radius = $$r$$ and height = $$h$$

Statement I : $$r + h = 24$$

=> Total surface area = $$2 \pi r (r + h) = 2112$$

=> $$2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r \times 24 = 2112$$

=> $$r = \frac{2112 \times 7}{22 \times 48} = 14$$ m

=> $$h = 24 - 14 = 10$$ m

Since, both radius and height are known, we can find the volume of cylinder, $$V = \pi r^2 h$$

Statement I alone is sufficient.


Statement II : We know that, $$a \times b = L.C.M. (a,b) \times H.C.F. (a,b)$$

=> $$r h = 70 \times 2 = 140$$

and $$r^2 - h^2 = 96$$

Solving the above equations, we get $$r = 14$$ m and $$h = 10$$ m

We can find the volume of the cylinder.

Statement II alone is sufficient.

Thus, either statement alone is sufficient to answer the question.
