TSA of cylinder with radius r = 7 and height h = 8 is equal to 2*(pi)r^2 + 2(pi)rh
Hence, Option A= 2(pi)49 + 2(pi)56= 2(pi)*105 = 210(pi) = 210*3.14 which is greater than 630
Option B on the other hand is TSA of a cube with edge length l = 9 which is calculated by 6*(L^2)= 6*81 = 486
As option A > option B, the answer is Option A.
Hence, Option A= 2(pi)49 + 2(pi)56= 2(pi)*105 = 210(pi) = 210*3.14 which is greater than 630
Option B on the other hand is TSA of a cube with edge length l = 9 which is calculated by 6*(L^2)= 6*81 = 486
As option A > option B, the answer is Option A.
