To find the surface area of a cylinder, we can use the formula:

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

where \( r \) is the radius of the cylinder and \( h \) is the height.

You need to provide the values of the radius (r) and height (h) of the cylinder to calculate the surface area. Since you didn't provide these, I'll demonstrate how you would perform the calculation with example values. Please provide the actual values if you have them.

Example Calculation

Let's say the radius \( r = 5 \) yards and the height \( h = 10 \) yards.

  1. Calculate the area of the top and bottom: \[ 2\pi r^2 = 2 \times 3.14 \times (5^2) = 2 \times 3.14 \times 25 = 157 \text{ square yards} \]

  2. Calculate the lateral surface area: \[ 2\pi rh = 2 \times 3.14 \times 5 \times 10 = 2 \times 3.14 \times 50 = 314 \text{ square yards} \]

  3. Combine both areas: \[ \text{Total Surface Area} = 157 + 314 = 471 \text{ square yards} \]

Once you provide the radius and height of your cylinder, I can perform a specific calculation for you!
