Find the height of the cylinder. I) A rectangular piece of paper of breadth 22 cm is rolled along its breadth to form a cylinder. If the curved surface area of the cylinder is 264 cm². II) The volume of the cylinder is 462 cm³.

  1. The statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, but the statement II alone is not sufficient.
  2. The statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, but the statement I alone is not sufficient.
  3. Both the statements I and II together are needed to answer the question.
  4. Either statement I alone or statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

Correct answer: The statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, but the statement II alone is not sufficient.

Solution

Statement I gives the breadth as the circumference of the base, so the radius can be found. Using curved surface area, the height can then be determined uniquely. Statement II alone gives only volume, which is not enough to determine both radius and height.
