Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder

Today we will discuss the Curved Surface Area of a cylinder. The formula is \( CSA = 2\pi rh \). Can anyone tell me what each symbol represents?
I think \( r \) stands for radius, but what is \( h \)?
Good question! \( h \) is the height of the cylinder. The CSA measures the area of the curved surface only, not the bases. To remember this, you might think of 'Curved is CSA'.
So how do we find the CSA if we have a cylinder with radius 3 cm and height 5 cm?
Let's plug those values into the formula: \( CSA = 2\pi(3)(5) = 30\pi \) cm². Would anyone like to try calculating the exact value?
That's about 94.25 cm²!
Exactly! Remember, CSA is useful for finding out how much material is needed to cover the curved surface.
Total Surface Area of a Cylinder

Now, let's move on to the Total Surface Area or TSA of the cylinder. The formula is \( TSA = 2\pi r(h + r) \). Can anyone explain what this means?
Does it include both the curved surface and the bases?
That's correct! The TSA combines the area of the two circular bases with the curved surface area. Why do you think this is important?
Maybe for wrapping a cylinder in paper or painting it?
Exactly! Let's calculate the TSA of a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and height of 5 cm. Who wants to try?
I can! So that would be \( TSA = 2\pi(3)(5 + 3) = 48\pi \) cm².
Well done! That’s about 150.8 cm², which is helpful to know when determining how much paint or material will be required!
Volume of a Cylinder

Lastly, let’s talk about the Volume of a cylinder. The formula is \( Volume = \pi r^2 h \). Why do you think knowing the volume is useful?
It could help us understand how much liquid the cylinder can hold?
Exactly! Let’s calculate the volume for a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and height of 5 cm.
That would be \( Volume = \pi (3^2)(5) = 45\pi \).
Great! That translates to approximately 141.37 cm³, which could help you when filling a container.
How do you remember the volume formula easily?
You can think of it as 'volume equals area of base times height'! This will help you connect ideas.
Introduction & Overview

Quick Overview
Standard
The section focuses on the geometry of cylinders, including the Curved Surface Area (CSA), Total Surface Area (TSA), and Volume formulas, along with their significance in mensuration. Practical applications and unit conversions associated with these measurements are also highlighted.
Detailed
Cylinder
In geometrical terms, a cylinder is a three-dimensional solid consisting of two parallel bases connected by a curved surface at a fixed distance from the center of the bases.
Key Formulas
- Curved Surface Area (CSA): The formula for CSA of a cylinder is given by:
\[ CSA = 2\pi rh \]
where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height of the cylinder.
- Total Surface Area (TSA): The TSA combines the area of the two bases and the curved surface area. It is calculated as:
\[ TSA = 2\pi r(h + r) \]
This accounts for the area of both the top and bottom circles, in addition to the side.
- Volume: The volume of a cylinder, which represents the space contained within, is calculated using:
\[ Volume = \pi r^2 h \]
where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height.
Importance in Mensuration
Understanding the surface area and volume of cylinders has practical implications in everyday life, from calculating the amount of paint required for cylindrical objects to determining the capacity of containers. This understanding aids in problem-solving in real-world applications like construction, packing, and storage.

Curved Surface Area (CSA) = 2πrh
Detailed Explanation
The Curved Surface Area (CSA) of a cylinder refers to the area of the curved part of the cylinder, excluding the top and bottom bases. To calculate it, we use the formula CSA = 2πrh, where 'r' is the radius of the circular base, and 'h' is the height of the cylinder. π (pi) is a constant approximately equal to 3.14. This formula essentially captures how much area wraps around the side of the cylinder.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine a soda can. The Curved Surface Area is like the label that wraps around the middle of the can. If you wanted to print a sticker to wrap around the can, the area of the sticker would be the Curved Surface Area.
Total Surface Area (TSA)

Total Surface Area (TSA) = 2πr(h + r)
Detailed Explanation
The Total Surface Area (TSA) of a cylinder includes both the curved surface area and the areas of the two circular bases. The formula TSA = 2πr(h + r) combines these areas: '2πr' accounts for the two bases, and 'h' is added to the radius to include the height of the cylindrical surface. This comprehensive formula helps to determine the total area exposed on the cylinder’s surface.
Examples & Analogies
Think of a tin can of soup. The Total Surface Area represents the entire exterior of the can, including both the top and bottom circles and the curved side. If you wanted to paint the entire surface of the can, you would need to know the Total Surface Area.
Volume of a Cylinder

Volume = πr²h
Detailed Explanation
The Volume of a cylinder measures how much space is inside the cylinder. The formula used to find this volume is Volume = πr²h, where 'r' is the radius of the base and 'h' is the height. This formula indicates that the volume is determined by the area of the base (which is a circle: πr²) multiplied by the height. This creates a three-dimensional space that we can fill with liquid or any other substance.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine filling a tall, cylindrical vase with water. The Volume tells you how much water you can pour into the vase before it overflows. If you know the radius of the base and how tall the water can rise, you can calculate the exact amount of water needed to fill it.
