Question

guided practice now you have determined that the lateral area can be found by using the formula la = πdh. 2.5 in. 5 in. type your answer and then click or tap done. what is the lateral area of the can? round your answer to the nearest whole number. use 3.14 for π. in² surface areas of prisms and cylinders

Explanation:

Step1: Identify diameter and height

Diameter \(d = 2.5\) in, height \(h = 5\) in

Step2: Apply lateral area formula

\(LA = \pi dh = 3.14 \times 2.5 \times 5\)

Step3: Calculate and round

\(3.14 \times 12.5 = 39.25 \approx 39\)

Answer:

39
