Answer:

the formula is (2*3.14*r²) + (2*3.14*r*h)

(2*3.14*13.6/2²) + (2*3.14*13.6/2*13.7)

= 875.4 cm²

Answer:

875.4 cm²

Explanation:

The surface area is composed of the 2 circular ends and the curved surface.

Area of ends = 2 × πr² ← r is the radius

here diameter = 13.6, so r = 13.6 ÷ 2 = 6.8

A = 2 × 3.14 × 6.8² ≈ 290.39 cm²

area of curved surface = 2πrh ( r is the radius and h the height )

here h = 13.7, thus

Area = 2 × 3.14 × 6.8 × 13.7 ≈ 585.04 cm²

Surface area = 290.39 + 585.04 = 875.4 cm² ( to nearest tenth )
