Given that the formula to get the surface area of a cylinder is:


SA=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh

Method: Substitute the values of r and h into the equation

For Question A

r=radius=2m

h=height= 6m


SA=2*3.14*2^2+2*3.14*2*6=100.48m^2

For option A, the surface area = 100.48 square meters

For Question B

r=4cm

h=11 cm


SA=2*3.14*4^2+2*3.14*4*11=376.8\operatorname{cm}^2

For option B, the surface area = 376.8 square centimeters

For Question C

r=12mm

h=3mm


SA=2*3.14*12^2+2*3.14*3*12=1130.4\operatorname{mm}^2

For Option C, the surface area= 1130.4 square millimeters
