Answer: 376.8 cm^2

Explanation:

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is A = 2prh +2pr^2

When:

  • A = surface area
  • p = value of pi (3.14 in this case)
  • r = radius (= 1/2 diameter)
  • h = height

When we substitute our values, we get the equation

A = 2(3.14)(4)(11) + 2(3.14)(4^2)

Now, we just multiply, square, and add our numbers to find A

A = 2(3.14)(4)(11) + 2(3.14)(4^2)

A = 2(3.14)(44) + 2(3.14)(16)

A = (6.28)(44) + (6.28)(16)

A = 276.32 + 100.48

A = 376.80

Because the hundredths place is a 0, we don't need to round.

A = 376.8

The unit is in centimeters. Area, and surface area by extent, are written in cm^2 (centimeters squared)

A = 376. 8 cm^2

Final answer: A = 376.8 cm^2
