We wil determine the radius as follows:
Since we are understanding the area as if the shape were cut and laid in a rectangle, then the area wiill be given by the height times the circumference, that is:
[tex]A=h\cdot c\Rightarrow A=h\cdot2\pi r[/tex]So:
[tex]372=16\cdot2\pi r\Rightarrow372=32\pi r[/tex][tex]\Rightarrow r=\frac{93}{8\pi}\Rightarrow r\approx3.70[/tex]So, the radius of the circular top is 93 / 8pi centimeters, that is approximately 3.70 centimeters.
