If the can's combined lips measure 38 inches and the adhesive overlaps by around 12 inches, the label's surface area will be 50 square inches.
The space filled by a flat form or the surface of an item is known as the area.
The number of unit squares that cover the surface of a closed-form is the figure's area. Square centimeters and other similar units are used to measure area.
Given data;
Height of can,[tex]\rm H=5 \frac{3}{8} \ inch[/tex]
Height of label,
[tex]\rm h=5\frac{3}{8} -\frac{3}{8} \\\\ h= 5 \ inch[/tex]
Diameter,[tex]\rm d= 3 \ inch[/tex]
The area of the label is;
A = ( overlap area + circumfereence ) h
[tex]\rm A = [\frac{1}{2} + 2 \pi \times \frac{3}{2} ] \\\\ A =[ \frac{1+6\pi}{2} ] \times 5 \\\\ A = 49.6 \ inch^2[/tex]
Hence, the label's surface area will be 50 square inches.
