Answer:


6524.51 ft^2

Explanation:

The surface area of a cylinder is given as;


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

where r = radius

h = height

The cylinder has a height of 32 feet and a diameter of 40 feet. This means that the radius is:

40 / 2 = 20 feet

The surface area is therefore:


SA = (2*\pi* 20 * 32) + (2*\pi *20^2)\\\\SA = 4021.24 + 2513.27\\\\SA = 6524.51 ft^2

The surface area of the cylinder is
6524.51 ft^2.
