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

Scale factor k = 4 so surface area multiplies by k^2 = 16.

Original SA = 2πrh + 2πr^2 = 2π(8)(15) + 2π(8^2) = 240π + 128π = 368π.

New SA = 16·368π = 5888π cm^2.
