The total surface area of the cheese wheel can be calculated by finding the lateral surface area of the cylinder and the area of the two circular ends.
Lateral Surface Area:
= 2 * π * r * h
= 2 * 3.14 * 3 * 2
= 37.68 square inches
Area of the two circular ends:
= 2 * π * r^2
= 2 * 3.14 * 3^2
= 56.52 square inches
Total surface area:
= Lateral Surface Area + Area of the two circular ends
= 37.68 + 56.52
= 94.2 square inches
Therefore, the total surface area of the cheese wheel is 94.2 square inches.
