Two cylinders are similar the surface area of one is 49cm^2 and the surface area of the other is 121cm^2 find the scale factor between them

Step-by-step explanation:

==>Given:

Two similar cylinders:

Surface area of Cylinder A = 49cm²

Surface area of Cylinder B = 121cm²

==>Required:

Scale factor between both cylinders

==>Solution:

We can easily get the scale factor between both by taking the following steps:

=>Set up a ratio of their surface area:

Smaller cone surface area : larger cone surface area

49:121

= 49/121

=>Simplify the ratio gotten:

Dividing the denominator and the numerator by 7, would give us,

7/17.29

= 7:17.29
