Answer:

The amount of square inches Juan needs to paint to cover the side of the can is 56.55 in.²

Explanation:

Here we it is required to find the surface are of area of a cylinder given the following parameters

Base diameter = 3 in,

Height = 6 in.

Therefore, the surface are = Perimeter of base of soda can × Height of of soda can

The surface are = π·D × Height of of soda can = π × 3 × 6 = 18·π in.² = 56.55 in.²

Hence, the amount of square inches Juan needs to paint to cover the side of the can = 56.55 in.²
