cores are cylindrical samples of ice taken from glaciers or ice sheets; because the ice in these areas can stay preserved for hundreds of thousands of years, they are essential samples for understanding climate change. Find the surface area of an ice core with a radius of 5.4 cm and a height of 470 cm
Cylinders
A cylinder is a three-dimensional solid shape with two parallel and congruent circular bases, joined by a curved surface at a fixed distance. A cylinder has an infinite curvilinear surface.
Cones
A cone is a three-dimensional solid shape having a flat base and a pointed edge at the top. The flat base of the cone tapers smoothly to form the pointed edge known as the apex. The flat base of the cone can either be circular or elliptical. A cone is drawn by joining the apex to all points on the base, using segments, lines, or half-lines, provided that the apex and the base both are in different planes.
