Hello!

To find the surface area of a cylinder you use the equation


SA = 2 \pi rh+ 2 \pi r^(2)

SA is surface area
r is radius
h is height

Put in the values you know


SA = 2 \pi (38)(123) + 2 \pi * 38^(2)

Square the number


SA = 2 \pi (38)(123) + 2 \pi * 1444

Multiply 38 and 123


SA = 2 \pi * 4674 + 2 \pi * 1444

Multiply 2 and 4674


SA = 9348 \pi + 2 \pi * 1444

Multiply the 2 and 1444


SA = 9348 \pi + 2888 \pi

Add


SA = 12236 \pi = 38440.53

The answer is 12236 pi or about 38440.53

Hope this helps!
