Q:

The curved surface area of a cylindrical pillar is 264 sq.m and its volume is 924 cub.m. Find the ratio of its diameter to its height

A) 3 : 7	B) 7 : 3
C) 6 : 7	D) 7 : 6

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 7 : 3

Explanation:

$\frac{{πr}^{2 h}}{2 {πr}^{2 h}} = \frac{924}{264}$

=> r = (24/364) x 2 = 7m

$2 πrh = 264 \Rightarrow h = (264 \times \frac{7}{22} \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{7}) = 6 m$

Required Rato =2r/h =14/6 = 7:3
