Remaining Attempts : 2

Answer 1

The formula for the total surface area of a cylinder is given by:

\[ \text{Surface Area} = 2\pi r(h + r) \]

Where:

• \( r \) is the radius of the base of the cylinder,
• \( h \) is the height of the cylinder,
• \( \pi \) is a constant approximately equal to 3.14159.

This formula includes the area of the two circular bases and the area of the curved surface.
