Determine the total area of the TWO BASES of this cylinder. (Use 3.14 for π.)

2cm on top and 15cm on the right side

1 answer

First, calculate the area of the base on the top of the cylinder:
Area = πr^2
Area = 3.14 x (2cm)^2
Area = 3.14 x 4cm^2
Area = 12.56 cm^2

Now, calculate the area of the base on the right side of the cylinder:
Area = πr^2
Area = 3.14 x (15cm)^2
Area = 3.14 x 225cm^2
Area = 706.5 cm^2

Total area of both bases = 12.56 cm^2 + 706.5 cm^2
Total area = 719.06 cm^2

Therefore, the total area of the two bases of the cylinder is 719.06 square centimeters.
