Check all that apply.

A. pie r^2+pie r(radius)h(height)

Answer:

B) 2πr² + 2πrh; C) BA + LA

Explanation:

To find the surface area of a figure, we add the base area and the lateral area. This is C, BA + LA.

In a cylinder, the lateral area is the area of a rectangle. Think of a label wrapped around a can of soup. The length of the rectangle is the measure of the circumference; this is given by 2πr. The width of the rectangle is the height of the can, or h; this gives us the area 2πr(h).

The bases of a cylinder are circles. The area of a circle is πr²; since there are 2 bases, this gives us 2πr².

Together this makes the surface area 2πr²+2πrh
