Answer:


A = 127.17 square inch

Explanation:

Square inches of space covered by rolling pin after one complete roll is equal to the outer surface area of cylinder.

As we know,

Surface area of Cylinder
A=2\pi rh+2\pi r^2\\

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -


A = (2*3.14*1.5*12) + (2 * 3.14*1.5^2)\\A = 113.04 + 14.13\\A = 127.17


A = 127.17 square inch
