Holt CA Course Surface Area of Prisms and Cylinders Additional Example 4: Application A cylindrical soup can is 7.6 cm in diameter and 11.2 cm tall. Estimate the area of the label that covers the side of the can. Only the lateral surface needs to be covered. Diameter ≈ 8 cm, so r ≈ 4 cm. L = 2rh = 2(4)(11) = 88 ≈ cm 2 The cylinder’s diameter is about 8 cm, and its height is about 11 cm.
