    A solid cylinder has a total surface area of \[231\,\,{{\text{m}}^{2}}.\] Its curved surface area is\[\frac{2}{3}\]of the total surface area. The volume of the cylinder is

    A)  \[269\frac{1}{2}\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}\]

    B)  \[259\frac{1}{2}\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}\]

    C)  \[249\frac{1}{2}\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}\]

    D)  \[239\frac{1}{2}\,\,{{\text{m}}^{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given, total surface area \[=231\,\,{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]
    and curved surface area \[=\frac{2}{3}\times \]total surface area
    \[=\frac{2}{3}\times 231=154\,\,{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]
    Now,        \[\frac{\text{Total}\,\,\text{surface}\,\,\text{area}}{\text{Curved}\,\,\text{surface}\,\,\text{area}}=\frac{231}{154}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{2\pi rh+2\pi {{r}^{2}}}{2\pi rh}=\frac{3}{2}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{h+r}{h}=\frac{3}{2}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2h+2r=3h\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2r=3h-2h\]
    \[\therefore \]      \[h=2r\]
    \[\because \] Curved surface area \[=2\pi rh=154\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2\pi \,\,(2r)=154\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[r=\frac{7}{2}\text{m}\]\[\therefore \]\[h=7\,\,\text{m}\]
    \[\therefore \]      Required volume \[=\pi {{r}^{2}}h\]
    \[=\frac{22}{7}\times \frac{7}{2}\times \frac{7}{2}\times 7=\frac{539}{2}\]
    \[=269\frac{1}{2}{{\text{m}}^{3}}\]
