Answer

$h=\frac{S-2\pi r^2}{2\pi r}$

Work Step by Step

The given formula is $\Rightarrow S=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh$ Subtract $2\pi r^2$ from each side. $\Rightarrow S-2\pi r^2=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh-2\pi r^2$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow S-2\pi r^2=2\pi rh$ Divide each side by $2\pi r$. $\Rightarrow \frac{S-2\pi r^2}{2\pi r}=\frac{2\pi rh}{2\pi r}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow \frac{S-2\pi r^2}{2\pi r}=h$ Hence, the solution is $h=\frac{S-2\pi r^2}{2\pi r}$.
