Determine the length in cm of the branding paper if it will have an extra length of 0.5 cm for gluing it onto the curved surface of the tin.

Question

1. Let the curved surface have a circumference of $$ C $$ cm.
2. Since the branding paper must extend an extra 0.5 cm for gluing, its total length $$ L $$ will be the circumference plus 0.5 cm.
3. Thus, the length of the branding paper is

$$
L = C + 0.5 \quad \text{cm.}
$$

If the tin is cylindrical with radius $$ r $$, then the circumference is

$$
C = 2\pi r,
$$

and the paper’s length becomes

$$
L = 2\pi r + 0.5 \quad \text{cm.}
$$

Without a specific value for $$ C $$ (or $$ r $$), the answer remains in this form.
The length of the branding paper is the circumference of the tin plus 0.5 cm.
