As illustrated in the accompanying figure, a sinusoidal cut is made in the top of a cylindrical tin can. Suppose that the base is modelled by the parametric equations x = cos t , y = sin t , z = 0 ( 0 ≤ t ≤ 2 π ) , and the height of the cut as a functions of t , z = 0 ( 0 ≤ t ≤ 2 π ) , and the height of the cut as a functions of t is z = 2 + 0.5 sin 3 t . (a) Use a geometric argument to find the lateral surface area or the cut can. (b) Write down a line integral for the surface area. (c) Use the line integral to calculate the surface area.
