To determine the lateral area of a cylinder, you need to multiply the height of the cylinder by the circumference of the base.

Circumference of the base = 2πr = 2(3.14)(1) = 6.28 cm

Lateral area = height x circumference of the base
Lateral area = 15 cm x 6.28 cm
Lateral area = 94.20 square centimeters

Therefore, the lateral area of the cylinder is 94.20 square centimeters.

C. 94.20 square centimeters

My apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation:

Lateral area = height x circumference of the base
Lateral area = 15 cm x 2 cm x 3.14
Lateral area = 30 cm x 3.14
Lateral area = 94.20 square centimeters

Therefore, the correct answer is:

C. 94.20 square centimeters
