calculate the area of the side surface of the roll.

The diamerer of the circular base is 18 cm.
Since the diameter is 2 radii, it follows that the radius r is given by:
[tex]r=\frac{18}{2}=9[/tex]Therefore, the lateral surface area is given by:
[tex]2\pi\times9\times7\approx395.84\text{ cm}^2[/tex]Therefore, the required area is:
395.84 cm²
