how to find surface area of a cylinder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The surface area of a cylinder is found by the formula S.A.cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you add the rh??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, you multiply the radius and height.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im still not getting the answer im getting frusteraded

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whats the problem?

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

Surface area of a cylinder = \[2pir(r+h)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

radius is 7 height is 2

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

Then ans is 396!!! Am I correct?

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

Tell me the whole question plz:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following is the surface area of the right cylinder below? and the radius is 7 h= 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guessed for that answer the correct answer was126pi idont get it!

OpenStudy (ajprincess):

is it 126pi?

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

I done it like that:- \[2 \pi r(r+h)\] \[2 \times 22 \div 7 \times 7(7+2)\] =396. I amn't getting the given question:(
