Question

6 in. SA = 2ten2 + 2trh (Use 3.14 for a.) Find the surface area of a cylinder with a height of 8 inches and base diameter of 6 inches. square inches 8 in. Do NOT round your answer.

Answer 1

207.24 in²

1) Gathering the data

height: 8"

Base Diameter: 6" then a Radius: 3 for D=2R

2) Let's find the Surface Area from this Cylinder by plugging into that the given data:

$\begin{gathered} SA=2\pi\cdot r^2+2\pi rh \\ S_A=2(3.14)\cdot(3)^2+2\cdot3.14\cdot3\cdot8 \\ S_A=207.24in^2 \end{gathered}$

3) Hence, the answer is 207.24 in²
