Part A

The capacity of cylinder is calculated by using the formula 𝜋𝑟 × ℎ; where ‘r’ is the radius of
the base and ‘h’ is the height of the cylinder.

A company produces 4 cylinders of identical height of 30 cm of which the first one has radius
5 cm, the second one has radius 10 cm third one has radius 15 cm and so on.

a) Continuing to produce the cylinders of equal heights, write down the radius of the
next two cylinders that will be produces in the pattern. [2]

b) Describe the pattern you observe for the values of radius ‘r’in the table. [2]
c) Write the general rule for ‘r’. [2]
d) Test your general rule. [2]

Part B

Now the Manufacturer wants to know the area of the base of the cylinder in each case.

e) Show that the area of the base of the cylinder in the first stage 25𝜋. [2]
 Stage (n) Area of the Base(A)

f) Write the missing areas in the table above. [2]

g) Describe the pattern for the area of the base of the cylinder. [2]
h) Write the general rule for the area of the base. [2]
i) Verify your general rule for area of the base. [3]
j) Justify the general rule for the area of the base. [3]
k) Write the formula for the capacity of any cylinder in terms of ‘n’ and ‘𝜋’ that is
produced by the company in the given pattern. [2]
