Final answer:

To find the surface area of a cylinder using a net, we need to visualize the cylinder being unwrapped and laid flat. The formula to calculate the surface area of a cylinder is 2πr1h + 2πr1^2, where r1 is the radius of the cylinder's bases and h is the height of the cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of a cylinder using a net, we need to visualize the cylinder being unwrapped and laid flat. The surface area of the cylinder consists of two circles (top and bottom) and one rectangle (the curved surface). The formula to calculate the surface area of a cylinder is:

Surface Area = 2πr1h + 2πr12

Where r1 is the radius of the cylinder's bases and h is the height of the cylinder.

Once you have the values of the radius and height, you can substitute them into the formula and calculate the surface area.
