Correct Answer: 46. (5)
Solution: 46. (5) Let the radius of the base of the cylinder be $r \mathrm{~cm}$ and height be $h \mathrm{~cm}$.
From statement I,
$\pi r^{2}=154$
$\Rightarrow \frac{22}{7} \times r^{2}=154$
$\Rightarrow r^{2}=\frac{154 \times 7}{22}=7 \times 7$
$\therefore r=7 \mathrm{~cm}$.
From statement II,
$\pi r^{2} h=1232$
$\Rightarrow \frac{22}{7} \times 7 \times 7 \times h=1232$
$\Rightarrow h=\frac{1232}{22 \times 7}=8 \mathrm{~cm}$.
$\therefore$ Curved surface area $=2 \pi r h$
$=2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 7 \times 8=352$ sq.cm.
