The curved surface area of a cylindrical tin is 704cm2. If the radius of its base is 8cm, find the height. [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]`
A
14cm
B
9cm
C
8cm
D
7cm
correct option: a
Curved surface area = 2\(\pi h\)

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

704 = \(\frac{352}{7}\)h

352h = 704 x 7

h = \(\frac{704 \times 7}{352}\)

= \(\frac{4928}{352}\)

h = 14cm
