Check the picture below.

so, to get the area of the object, we'll use the lateral area of a cone with a height of 30 and a radius of 18, and the lateral area of a cylinder with height of 60 and radius of 18, and sum those two up.


\stackrel{\textit{lateral area of a cone}}{\pi r√(r^2+h^2)}\implies \pi 18√(18^2+30^2)\implies 108\pi √(34) \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{lateral area of a cylinder}}{2\pi rh\implies 2\pi (18)(60)}\implies 2160\pi


\stackrel{\textit{area of the bottom circle of the cylinder}}{\pi r^2\implies \pi 18^2\implies 324\pi } \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{total area of the shape}}{108\pi √(34)+2160\pi +324\pi ~~\approx~~9782.1115~~\implies ~~\stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{\boxed{9782~~in^2}}}12

Answer:

3024π square inches

Explanation:

The surface area is the sum of ...

  • lateral area of the cone
  • lateral area of the cylinder
  • area of the circular base

The relevant area formulas are ...

A = πrs . . . . . lateral area of cone with radius r and slant height s

A = 2πrh . . . . lateral area of cylinder with radius r and height h

A = πr² . . . . . area of a circle of radius r

The radius is half the diameter, so is (36 in)/2 = 18 in. When we add up these areas, we can factor out a common factor to simplify the expression a bit.

A = πrs +2πrh +πr²

A = πr(s +2h +r) = π(18 in)(30 in +2(60 in) +18 in) = π(18)(168) in²

A = 3024π in² . . . . surface area
