Question

Find the surface area, to the nearest square centimeter, of a cylinder with diameter 6 cm and height 8 cm.

a. 48 cm²
C.
207 cm²
b.
452 cm²
d.
72 cm²

Answer 1

`\sf 207 \ cm^2`

Explanation:

Surface area of cylinder

diameter = 6 cm

r = 6/2 = 3 cm

h = 8 cm

`\sf \boxed{\text{\bf Surface area of cylinder = $2\pi r(h +r)$}}`

`\sf = 2*3.14*3 * (3 +8)\\\\ = 2*3.14* 3 * 11\\\\= 207.24\\\\= 207 \ cm^2`
