Additionally, this blog tells you about the concept of the Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder, the formula and examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(202,248,128) 66%,rgb(113,206,126) 100%)\"><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><strong>Surface Areas and Volumes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-the-formula-for-the-curved-surface-area-of-a-cylinder\">What is the Formula for the Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you unroll the Curved surface of a cylinder it will change into a flat rectangle. Additionally, the length of this rectangle is equal to the cylinder\u2019s circumference, which is 2\u03c0r (where r is the base radius and \u03c0 is pi). Moreover, the height of the rectangle stays the same as the cylinder\u2019s height (h).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, the formula for the Curved surface area of a cylinder (CSA) is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CSA = 2\u03c0rh<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>CSA represents the Curved surface area.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u03c0 (pi) is a mathematical constant with an approximate value of 3.14.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>r represents the base radius of the cylinder.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>h represents the height of the cylinder.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(202,248,128) 84%,rgb(113,206,126) 100%)\"><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/indian-exams\/volume-and-surface-area-questions\/\"><strong>20+ Volume and Surface Area Questions and Answers<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-curved-surface-area-of-cylinder-example\">Curved Surface Area of Cylinder Example<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us say you have a tin can with a base radius of 5 centimetres and a height of 10 centimetres. You want to find the Curved surface area (the area excluding the top and bottom circles) needed to wrap a creative label around the can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the formula <strong>CSA = 2\u03c0rh<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>CSA = 2 \u2715 3.14 \u2715 5 \u2715 10 (assuming the value of \u03c0 as 3.14)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CSA = 314 cm\u00b2<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, you will need approximately 314 square centimetres of material for your creative label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at another example. The radius is 3 meters and the height is 8 meters. Again we shall take the Formula, <strong>CSA = 2\u03c0rh.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2 \u2715 3.14 \u2715 3 \u2715 8 (assuming the value of \u03c0 as 3.14)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>CSA = 150 m\u00b2<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, with the radius being 3 meters and the height being 8 meters, the CSA is 150 m\u00b2.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Related Blogs\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-background\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(202,248,128) 68%,rgb(113,206,126) 100%)\"><tbody><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/basic-concepts-types-of-fractions\/\"><strong>7 Types of Fractions with Examples<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/basic-concepts-hcf-and-lcm\/\"><strong>All You Need to Know About HCF and LCM\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/basic-concepts-how-to-find-percentage-of-marks\/\"><strong>How to Find Percentage of Marks?<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/basic-concepts-tables-1-to-20\/\"><strong>Multiplication Tables of 1 to 20<\/strong><\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/basic-concept-hcf-of-two-consecutive-numbers\/\"><strong>What is the HCF of Two Consecutive Numbers?<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/civics-and-polity-table-of-17\/\"><strong>Table of 17: Multiples up to 20 & a Trick!<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/basic-concepts-table-of-12\/\"><strong>Table of 12: Multiples up to 20!<\/strong><\/a><\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/discover\/school-education\/basic-concept-hcf-of-two-consecutive-odd-numbers\/\"><strong>What is the HCF of Two Consecutive Odd Numbers?<\/strong><\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope this helps!
