Multiply the circumference of the base by the altitude, and the product will be the convex surface; and to this, add the areas of the two bases, when the entire surface is required (Bk. VI. Th. ii).

EXAMPLES.

1. What is the entire surface of the cylinder in which AB, the diameter of the base, is 12 feet, and the altitude EF 30 feet?

First, to find the circumference of the base, (Prob. X. page 180): we have

3.1416 × 12=37.6992-circumference of

[graphic]

the base.

Then, 37.6992 x 30=1130.9760-convex surface.

Also, 12=144

base.

Then,

4. What is the convex surface of a cylinder, the diameter of whose base is 30 inches, and altitude 5 feet?

Ans. 5654.88 sq. in.

5. Required the convex surface of a cylinder, whose alti tude is 14 feet, and the circumference of the base 8 feet 4 inches. Ans. 116.6666, &c., sq. ft.

PROBLEM II.

To find the solidity of a cylinder.

RULE.

Multiply the area of the base by the altitude, and the product will be the solidity.

EXAMPLES.

1. What is the solidity of a cylinder,

the diameter of whose base is 40 feet, and altitude EF, 25 feet?

First, to find the area of the base, we have (Prob. xv. page 231).

4021600: then, 1600×.7854-1256.64.

area of the base.

Then, 1256.64 × 25-31416 solid feet, which is the solidity.

PROBLEM III.

To find the surface of a cone.

RULE.

Multiply the circumference of the base by the slant height, and divide the product by 2; the quotient will be the convex surface, to which add the area of the base, when the entire surface is equired (Bk. VI. Th. viii).
