Height (h) of cylinder = 14cm
Let the diameter of cylinder be d.
Curved Surface Area of Cylinder = 88cm square
2πrh = 88 cm square
π dh = 88 cm square. (d = 2r)
22/7 × d × 14 = 88 cm
d = 2 cm
Therefore,the diameter of the base of the cylinder is 2 cm

Answer:
2 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The curved surface area of a cylinder:
area = 2πrh
Given that the height is 14 cm:
area = 2πr(14)
area = 28πr
Given that the area is 88 cm²:
area = 88 cm²
area = 28πr
28πr = 88
r = 88 ÷ 28π
r = 1 cm
Find the diameter:
Diameter = 2 x radius
Diameter = 2 x 1
Diameter = 2 cm
Answer: The diameter is 2 cm
