Answer

$h=\dfrac{S}{2\pi r}-r$

Work Step by Step

$S=2\pi rh+2\pi r^{2}$ $,$ for $h$ Take $2\pi r^{2}$ to subtract the left side: $S-2\pi r^{2}=2\pi rh$ Take $2\pi r$ to divide the left side: $\dfrac{S-2\pi r^{2}}{2\pi r}=h$ Rearrange: $h=\dfrac{S-2\pi r^{2}}{2\pi r}$ Simplify: $h=\dfrac{S}{2\pi r}-r$
