Given,

Radius of the cylindrical pillar, r = $\frac{50}{2}\ cm= 25\ cm= 0.25\ m$

Height of the cylinder, h = $3.5\hspace{1mm}m$

We know,

Curved surface area of a cylinder = $2\pi r h$

$\therefore$ Curved surface area of the pillar = $2\times\frac{22}{7}\times 0.25 \times3.5$

$= 1\times22\times 0.25\ m^2$

$= 5.5\ m^2$

Now,

Cost of painting $\small 1\ m^2$ of the pillar = $\small Rs \hspace{1mm} 12.50$

$\therefore$ Cost of painting the curved surface area of the pillar = $\small Rs.\ (12.50\times5.5)$

$\small = Rs.\ 68.75$

Therefore, the cost of painting curved surface area of the pillar is $\small Rs.\ 68.75$
