Answer:

The surface area of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula:

Surface area = 2πr^2 + 2πrh

Where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.

Plugging in the values we have:

Surface area = 2π(8^2) + 2π(8)(8) = 2π(64) + 2π(64) = 128π

Rounding to the nearest thousandth, we have:

Surface area = 128π = 403.23 in^2 (rounded to the nearest thousandth)

So the surface area of the cylinder with height 8 in and radius 8 in is 403.23 in^2.
