How To Find The Surface Area Of A Cylinder?

Use the formula: Surface Area = 2πr² + 2πrh

Identify the radius r of the circular base

Identify the height h of the cylinder

Calculate the area of the two circular bases: 2πr²

Calculate the lateral area: 2πrh

Add the two parts together

Use π ≈ 3.14 if needed
