The answer is C. This is because the area of a cylinder can be represented with the formula: [tex]A= 2r \pi h+2 \pi r^2[/tex] Then, you substitute 6 for h, the height, and 3.5 for r, the radius and solve, giving you the answer, 208.92 sq. cm. Then, you have to subtract the two circular sides. You find the area of one circle and multiply by 2. One circle is 38.48 sq. cm and doubled is 76.96 sq. cm. Then you subtract 208.92-76.96 giving you about 132 sq. cm.
