Question

1. the area of the base of a cylinder is calculated by:

a. ( 2pi r )
b. ( 2pi rh )
c. ( pi r^{2} )
d. ( \frac{4}{3}pi r^{3} )

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the shape of the base of a cylinder

The base of a cylinder is a circle.

Step2: Recall the formula for the area of a circle

The formula for the area of a circle is \(A = \pi r^{2}\), where \(r\) is the radius of the circle.

Answer:

C. \(\pi r^{2}\)
