1. The figure shows a section of a metal pipe. Given the internal radius of the pipe is 2
cm, the external radius is 2.4 cm and the length of the pipe is 10 cm. Find the total
surface area of the pipe

Solution:
r = 2, R = 2.4, h = 10
Total surface area of pipe
= area of internal surface + area of external surface + area of the two rings
= 2rh + 2Rh + 2(R2 r2)
= (2 2 10) + (2 2.4 10) + (2 (2.4 2 22))
= 40 + 48 + 3.52
= 91.52
= 91.52 3.142
= 287.56 cm2
