From a solid cylinder of height 15 cm and diameter 7 cm, two conical holes are drilled each of radius 3 cm and height 4 cm. Find the surface area of the remaining solid

Answer :

Given Diameter of cylinder =  7 cm So
Radius of solid cylinder =  3.5 cm
Height of cylinder = 15 cm

And
Radius of cone =  3 cm
Height of cone =  4 cm 

So we form our figure as :

And we want to find surfaced area of reaming solid (  As colored portion of solid cylinder )
So ,

Surface area of remaining solid cylinder =  Total surface area of cylinder -  Area of base of cones +  curved surface area of cones

We know
Total surface area of cylinder =  2πr ( r + h ) , So

Total surface area of this solid cylinder =  2× 227 × 3.5 ( 3.5 + 15)  ( As we know π227 )

Total surface area of this solid cylinder =  22 ×  18.5  = 407 cm2

And

Area of base of cone  =  πr2 , So
Area of base of both cones  =  2×πr2

Area of base of both cones  =  2×227 × 3 × 3

Area of base of both cones  = 3967  = 56.57 cm2

And

Slant height of cone   = h2 + r2 = 42 + 32 = 16 + 9 = 25 =  5 cm
we know curved surface area of cone = πrl , So

Curved surface area of  both cones = 2 × πrl 

Curved surface area of  both cones = 2 × 227  × 3 ×

Curved surface area of  both cones = 6607   = 94.28 cm2

Then

Surface area of remaining solid cylinder = 407 cm2 - 56.57 cm2 + 94.28 cm2  = 444.71 cm2                         ( Ans )
