The curved surface area of a cylindrical tin is 704cm\(^2\). Calculate the height when the radius is 8cm. [Take π = 22/7]

A
3.5cm
B
7cm
C
14cm
D
28cm
correct option: c

Curved surface area of a cylindrical tin = \(2\pi rh\)

\(\therefore 2\pi rh = 704cm^2\)

\(2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 8 \times h = 704\)

\(h = \frac{704 \times 7}{2 \times 22 \times 8}\)

\(h = 14cm\)
