### Geometry Lesson: Analyzing Cylinders from Rolled Paper

Given two sheets of paper:
- **Sheet A:** 8-1/2" x 11"
- **Sheet B:** 11" x 8-1/2"

**Instructions:** Roll each sheet of paper into the shape of a cylinder to help answer the following questions.

1. **Volume Comparison:** Which cylinder has the greater volume, A or B?
   - [Answer Box]

2. **Volume Calculation for Paper A:** To the nearest hundredth, what is the volume of the cylinder created by paper A?
   - [Answer Box]

3. **Lateral Area Calculation for Paper B:** To the nearest tenth, what is the lateral area of the cylinder created by paper B?
   - [Answer Box] 

This exercise will help you understand how dimensions affect volume and surface area in a practical setting. Consider the implications of swapping the dimensions to create different cylinders.
