Use the image to answer the question.

A cylinder has a height of 15 centimeters and a radius of 8 centimeters.

If the cylinder were dilated using a scale factor of 4, what would be the new surface area? The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is SA=2πrh+2πr2 .

To find the new surface area of the cylinder after applying a dilation with a scale factor of 4, we can follow these steps:

  1. Determine the dimensions of the dilated cylinder:

    • Original height (h) = 15 cm
    • Original radius (r) = 8 cm
    • After dilation (scale factor = 4):
      • New height = 4 * 15 cm = 60 cm
      • New radius = 4 * 8 cm = 32 cm
  2. Use the formula for the surface area of a cylinder: \[ SA = 2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2 \] Replace \( r \) and \( h \) with the new values:

    • \( r = 32 \) cm
    • \( h = 60 \) cm
  3. Calculate the surface area: \[ SA = 2\pi(32)(60) + 2\pi(32)^2 \]

    • Calculating the first term: \[ 2\pi(32)(60) = 3840\pi \]
    • Calculating the second term: \[ 2\pi(32)^2 = 2\pi(1024) = 2048\pi \]
    • Adding the two terms together: \[ SA = 3840\pi + 2048\pi = 5888\pi \]

Thus, the new surface area of the dilated cylinder is 5,888π cm².

So the correct response is: 5,888π cm².
