Answer:

339.24

Explanation:

To find the surface area, you will need to the the area of the base of the cylinder. To do that, use the formula A=pi (r)^2

The radius is half the diameter do r=3

3.14(3)^2 should give you about 28.27.

This is the area of the top and bottom of the cylinder.

Now, do 28.27x10=282.7 to find the height surface area.

282.7+28.27+28.27=Surface area.

SA= about 339.24
