Let y be the altitude, and x be the radius.

Explanation:

x + y = 63x+y=63

4/5y = x45y=x

4/5y + y = 6345y+y=63

(9y)/5 = 639y5=63

9y = 63 xx 59y=63×5

9y = 3159y=315

y = 35y=35

x + 35 = 63x+35=63

x = 63 - 35x=6335

x = 28x=28

The surface area of a cylinder is given by S.A = 2r^2pi + 2rhπS.A=2r2π+2rhπ

The radius, r, measures 28 cm.

Therefore, S.A = 2(28)^2pi + 2(28)(35)πS.A=2(28)2π+2(28)(35)π

S.A = 1568pi + 1960piS.A=1568π+1960π

S.A = 3528piS.A=3528π cm^2m2

As for the volume, the volume of a cylinder is given by V = r^2π xx hV=r2π×h

V = 28^2pi xx 35V=282π×35

V = 27440piV=27440π cm^3m3

Hopefully this helps!
