Here, h = 1 m, r = 140/ 2 cm = 70 cm = 0.7 m 

Total surface area of the cylinder = 2πr (h + r) 

= 2 × 22/ 7 × 0.7 (1 + 0.7) m2 

= 44 × 0.1 × 1.7 m2 = 7.48 m2 

Hence, 7.48 m2 of sheet is required Ans.

Given,

Base diameter of cylindrical tank = 140 cm

So, radius of tank =\(\cfrac{140}2\) = 70 cm = .70m

Height of tank = 1m

So, area of sheet required for making the tank = TSA

= 2πr(h + r)

= 2\(\times\cfrac{22}7\times\).70 \(\times\)1.7 = 7.48 m2
