To find the surface area (SA) of a cylinder, you can use the formula you provided:

\[
\text{SA} = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh
\]

Where:
- \( r \) is the radius of the cylinder,
- \( h \) is the height of the cylinder, and
- \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14.

Given:
- Diameter = 20 cm, so the radius \( r = \frac{20}{2} = 10 \) cm
- Height \( h = 20 \) cm

Now, let's plug the values into the formula:

1. Calculate the area of the two circular bases:
\[
2\pi r^2 = 2 \times 3.14 \times (10)^2 = 2 \times 3.14 \times 100 = 628 \text{ cm}^2
\]

2. Calculate the lateral surface area:
\[
2\pi rh = 2 \times 3.14 \times 10 \times 20 = 2 \times 3.14 \times 200 = 1256 \text{ cm}^2
\]

3. Add both areas to find the total surface area:
\[
\text{SA} = 628 + 1256 = 1884 \text{ cm}^2
\]

Thus, the total surface area of the cylinder is **1884 cm²**.

The correct answer is: **1884 cm²**.
