PQ6 - Our goal is to minimize the surface area, and thus the amount of plastic used. Use the first derivative rule to find the critical point(s) for the surface area function.
a) What value for the radius will minimize the surface area?
b)Verify that this is a minimum point for the surface area function using either the first or second derivative.
c)State the radius and height required to minimize surface area and the value of that surface area.
