To find the surface area of a cylinder, you need to calculate the areas of the two circular faces and the lateral surface area (the area of the rectangle formed when you unwrap the curved surface of the cylinder).
First, calculate the area of the two circular faces:
Area of one circular face = πr^2
Area of both circular faces = 2πr^2
Next, calculate the lateral surface area:
Lateral surface area = 2πrh
Add the areas of the two circular faces and the lateral surface area to get the total surface area:
Total surface area = 2πr^2 + 2πrh
Given that you have not provided the dimensions of the cylinder (radius and height), it is not possible to calculate the surface area. Therefore, the correct answer for this question cannot be determined without additional information.
Find the surface area of the cylinder to the nearest whole number. The figure is not drawn to scale.
