Problem: 34 . the side surface of a cylinder is rolled with a rectangular plate . if the perimeter of the circular base is 9 feet , and the diagonal of the rectangular plate was 15 ft . what is height of the of the cylinder ?
Rationale: think of a pringles can . if you took off the bottom and top and cut a slit down the length , it would flatten to a rectangle . the dimensions of the rectangle are the height of the can and the circumference of the circle . since you know both , one side and thehypothenuse use pythagoreans theorem or properties of 3 - 4 - 5 triangles to solve for the other side , 12 . correct answer a
annotated_formula: sqrt(subtract(power(15, const_2), power(9, const_2)))
