The height of a right circular cylinder is 6 m. If three times the sum of the areas of its two circular faces is twice the area of the curved surface, then the radius of its base is :

a) 1 m
b) 2 m
c) 3 m
d) 4 m

Answer: d
Explanation:
$$\eqalign{ & 3 \times 2\pi {r^2} = 2 \times 2\pi rh \cr & \Rightarrow 6r = 4h \cr & r = \frac{2}{3}h \cr & r = \left( {\frac{2}{3} \times 6} \right)m \cr & r = 4\,m \cr} $$
