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

  1. Understand the effect of the dilation on the dimensions:

    • When a shape is dilated by a scale factor of \( k \), its linear dimensions (height \( h \) and radius \( r \)) are multiplied by \( k \).
    • Thus, in this case:
      • The new radius \( r' = 4r \)
      • The new height \( h' = 4h \)
  2. Use the surface area formula for a cylinder: \[ SA = 2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2 \]

  3. Substitute the new dimensions into the surface area formula: \[ SA' = 2\pi (r')(h') + 2\pi (r')^2 = 2\pi (4r)(4h) + 2\pi (4r)^2 \] \[ = 2\pi (16rh) + 2\pi (16r^2) \] \[ = 32\pi rh + 32\pi r^2 \] \[ = 32(2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2) \]

  4. Factor out the original surface area: \[ SA' = 32 \cdot SA \]

  5. Thus, the new surface area is 32 times the original surface area.

Without knowing the original surface area (let's call it \( SA \)), we would multiply that value by 32 to get the new surface area.

Now, let's look at the options provided. If none of the values are dependent on the original area, and we assume any possible value for the original surface area leads to \( SA' = 32 \cdot SA \), we can test for a plausible value among the responses:

If we take \( SA = 1\pi \): \[ SA' = 32 \cdot 23\pi = 736\pi \text{ (not listed)} \]

If \( SA = 56\pi \): \[ SA' = 32 \cdot 56\pi = 1792\pi \text{ (not listed)} \]

There might be a misinterpretation of the original surface area or we could assume an original surface area value that yields outputs listed. It's best, if provided an original surface area, to substitute that value for an accurate computation of changes after dilation.

For the known responses, assume we want \( SA = 184\pi \), we compute: \[ SA' = 32 \cdot 184\pi = 5888\pi \]

Given that, the new surface area after the dilation of scale factor 4 is: \[ \boxed{5,888\pi , \text{cm}^2} \]
