Final: The Paint Can
Part of the Surface Area & Volume section of Coddy's Geometry journey. Lesson 62 of 62.
A sealed paint can is a cylinder 9 cm tall. Its metal, lid and bottom included, has an area of 72π cm². The label does not give the radius. Is there enough to work out how much paint the can holds?
Decide first, then, if you can, find the volume.
Challenge
The can is 9 tall and its surface area is 72π. Is there enough to find its volume? Answer, and if Yes, find it. Then press Check.
Try it yourself
Is there enough information?
