\sf \longrightarrow \: \:Surface \: area \: of \: cylinder \: = \: 2\pi \: r \: h \: + \: 2\pi \: {r}^(2)

  • r represents radius of cylinder

  • h represents height of cylinder


\sf \longrightarrow \: \: r \: = \: (Diameter)/(2) \\


\sf \longrightarrow \: \: r \: = \: (12)/(2) \\


\sf \longrightarrow \: \: r \: = \: \cancel(12)/(2) \: \: ^(6) \\


\sf \longrightarrow \: \: r \: = \:6 \: ft


\sf \longrightarrow \: \: h \: = \: 15 \: ft

Now , Substuting the values


\sf \implies \: \:2 \: * \: \pi * \: 6 \: * \: 15 \: \: + \: \: 2 \: * \: \pi * \: {6}^(2)


\sf \implies \: \:2 \: * \: \pi * \: 90 \: \: + \: \: 2 \: * \: \pi * \: 36


\sf \implies \: \:180 \: \pi \: + \: \: 72 \: \pi


\sf \implies \: \:252 \: \pi

Hence, the surface area of cylinder is 252 π ft²
