Solution

Step 1:

Write the lateral surface area or curved surface area of a cylinder:


Lateral\text{ surface area = 2}\pi rh

Step 2:

Write the given data

Height h = 8ft

Radius r = 4 ft

Step 3:

Substitute in the formula to find the lateral surface area.


\begin{gathered} Lateral\text{ surface area = 2}\pi rh \\ =\text{ 2 }*\text{ 3.142 }*\text{ 4 }*\text{ 8} \\ =\text{ 201.1 ft}^2 \end{gathered}

Final answer

201.1
