We'll be analyzing the surface area of a round cylinder in other words, the amount of
material needed to "make a can".
A cylinder (round can) has a circular base and a circular top with vertical sides in
between. Let r be the radius of the top of the can and let h be the height. The surface
area of the cylinder, A, is A = 2² +2πrh (two circles, one for the top and one for
the bottom plus a rolled up rectangle for the sides).
r = radius
Areas = ²
Circumference
2лr
r (A) =
h = height
Part a: Assume that the height of your cylinder is 4 inches. Consider A as a function of r,
so we can write that as A (r) = 2² +8 r. What is the domain of A (r)? In other
words, for which values of r is A (r) defined?
Area = h(2x)
Part b: Continue to assume that the height of your cylinder is 4 inches. Write the radius
r as a function of A. This is the inverse function to A (r), i.e., to turn A as a function of
r into r as a function of A.
Hints:
• To calculate an inverse function, you need to solve for r. Here, you would start with
A = 2² +8 πr. This equation is the same as 2 ² +8 πr-A=0 which is
a quadratic equation in the variable r, and you can solve that using the quadratic
formula. You will want to keep A as a variable when you plug the values into the
quadratic formula.
• If you want to type in
3 π+1
in Mobius, in text mode you can type in (3*pi+1)/(x+1).
x+1
There is more information in the Introduction to Mobius unit.
Part c: If the surface area is 100 square inches, then what is the radius r? In other words,
evaluate r (100). Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Hint: To compute a numeric square root such as √17.3, you could
• Use a spreadsheet such as Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice Calc and type in
= sqrt(17.3)
The radius is Number
• Use a browser to connect to the Internet and type in sqrt(17.3) into a search field
• Use a calculator
