Question

What is the surface area of this cylinder?

A. 384 π cm^2

B. 128 π cm^2

C. 1204 π cm^2

D. 256 π cm^2

Answer 1

A.

`TSA=384\pi {cm}^(2)`

Step-by-step explanation

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

`TSA=2\pi \: {r}(r + h)`

We substitute the radius, which is

`r = 8cm`

and

height

`h = 16cm`

into the formula to obtain,

`TSA=2\pi \: {8}(8 + 16)`

`TSA=16 * 24\pi`

`TSA=384\pi {cm}^(2)`

The correct choice is A.
