1. Problem Description

We are given two problems.
(a) A cylinder with radius 3.53.5 cm has its two ends closed. If the total surface area is 209 cm2209 \text{ cm}^2, calculate the height of the cylinder. Take π=227\pi = \frac{22}{7}.
(b) In a circle with center OO, ABCABC is a tangent at BB. Given BDF=66\angle BDF = 66^\circ and DBC=57\angle DBC = 57^\circ, calculate (i) EBF\angle EBF and (ii) BGF\angle BGF.

2. Solution Steps

(a)
The total surface area of a cylinder with radius rr and height hh is given by
A=2πr2+2πrhA = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh.
We are given r=3.5r = 3.5 cm and A=209 cm2A = 209 \text{ cm}^2. Also, π=227\pi = \frac{22}{7}.
Substituting these values into the formula:
209=2×227×(3.5)2+2×227×3.5×h209 = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times (3.5)^2 + 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 3.5 \times h
209=2×227×12.25+2×227×3.5×h209 = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 12.25 + 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 3.5 \times h
209=2×22×1.75+2×22×0.5×h209 = 2 \times 22 \times 1.75 + 2 \times 22 \times 0.5 \times h
209=44×1.75+22h209 = 44 \times 1.75 + 22h
209=77+22h209 = 77 + 22h
22h=2097722h = 209 - 77
22h=13222h = 132
h=13222h = \frac{132}{22}
h=6h = 6 cm
(b)
(i) We are given that ABCABC is a tangent to the circle at BB, and DBC=57\angle DBC = 57^\circ.
By the alternate segment theorem, DEB=DBC=57\angle DEB = \angle DBC = 57^\circ.
Since EE is on the circle, EDB\angle EDB and EFB\angle EFB subtend the same arc, so EFB=EDB\angle EFB = \angle EDB. Also, BDF=66\angle BDF = 66^\circ, so EDB=1806666=EDB=66\angle EDB = 180^\circ - 66^\circ - 66^\circ = \angle EDB = 66^\circ.
Since angles in the same segment are equal, BEF=BDF=66\angle BEF = \angle BDF = 66^\circ.
EBF=180BEFEFB=180DEBEDB=1805766=180123=57\angle EBF = 180^\circ - \angle BEF - \angle EFB = 180^\circ - \angle DEB - \angle EDB = 180^\circ - 57^{\circ} - 66^{\circ} = 180^{\circ} -123^{\circ}=57^{\circ}.
EBF=57\angle EBF = 57^\circ
(ii) EDF=66\angle EDF = 66^{\circ}. Since the angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference,
EBF=DBC=57\angle EBF = \angle DBC = 57^{\circ}. Also, the sum of the angles in triangle EBFEBF is 180180^\circ.
Since EBEB is a diameter, EFB=90\angle EFB = 90^\circ, and EBF+BEF=90EBF+BEF=90^\circ.
Since angle in the same segment are equal, BEF=BDF=66\angle BEF = \angle BDF = 66^\circ.
EBF=180(66+57)=57\angle EBF = 180^\circ - (66^\circ + 57^\circ) = 57^\circ. EBF=18090=90\angle EBF = 180^\circ - 90^\circ = 90^\circ.
Since EBEB is a diameter, EDB=90\angle EDB=90^\circ.
FBE=9066=24\angle FBE = 90^\circ-66^\circ=24^\circ. EBD=57EBD = 57.
EBD+DBC=57=57\angle EBD + \angle DBC = 57 = 57 and EBD=33EBD=33^\circ.
EBF\angle EBF is equal to 9090.
BGF\angle BGF is at the centre so is twice the angle BDFBDF.
BGF=2BEF\angle BGF=2\angle BEF and EF=90EF=90^\circ.
BEF+FED=90\angle BEF + \angle FED = 90^{\circ}
BGF=2×BDF\angle BGF = 2 \times \angle BDF. BDF=66\angle BDF=66^\circ.
BGF=132\angle BGF = 132^{\circ}.

3. Final Answer

(a) The height of the cylinder is 66 cm.
(b) (i) EBF=57\angle EBF = 57^\circ
(ii) BGF=132\angle BGF = 132^\circ
