A square sheet of side length 44 cm is rolled along one of its sides to form a cylinder by making opposite edges just to touch each other. What is the volume of the cylinder? (Take \pi=\frac{22}{7})
- A. 6776 cubic cm ✓
- B. 6248 cubic cm
- C. 5896 cubic cm
- D. 5680 cubic cm
Correct Answer: A. 6776 cubic cm
Explanation
Rolling the square sheet forms a cylinder with height h = 44 and circumference 2\pi r = 44. Solving gives r = 7. Volume = \pi r^2 h = \frac{22}{7} \times 49 \times 44 = 154 \times 44 = 6776 cubic cm.
