Answer:

1733.28

Explanation:

we want to find the surface area of the cylinder

We are given:

diameter = 12in

height = 40in

formula to find surface area of a cylinder: SA = 2πr^2 + 2πrh (where h = height and r = radius)

in order to find the SA of a cylinder we need to know the radius

we are given that the diameter is 12

we can acquire the measure of the radius by dividing the diameter by 2 ( this is because the radius is equal to half of the diameter )

so r = 12/2 = 6

now to find the surface area,

we simply plug in the values of the radius and height into the SA of a cylinder formula

SA = 2πr^2 + 2πrh

r = 6

h = 40

( note it says use 3.14 for π )

substitute values

SA = 2(3.14)(6)^2 + 2(3.14)(6)(40)

if you plug this into a calculator you get that the surface area is 1,733.28
