A. 112 π cm
B. 128 cm
C. 256π cm
D 160π cm

Now I am not getting that answer:
Surface Area (SA) = Lateral Area (LA) + area of base (B)
LA - 1/2 x 2πr x l
LA = 1/2 x 2π x 3 x 17
LA = 51π
B = πr^2
B = π x 3^2
B = 28.27433388
SA = (51π) + 28.27433388
SA = 79.27433388π
OpenStudy (jim766):
SA = pi*r*s + pi * r^2
OpenStudy (hlambach):
well, that sure makes a difference... haha
OpenStudy (jim766):
SA = 3*17 pi + 3^2pi

ah okay... btw, to make the pi sign, press Alt 227 on your number pad :)
OpenStudy (jim766):
π cool
OpenStudy (hlambach):
OKay, how do i add the two pis? do?
OpenStudy (hlambach):
whoops, the do? wasnt supposed to be there :)
OpenStudy (jim766):
think of the π as a variable

so π^2? how would i get rid of the ^2?
OpenStudy (jim766):
51π + 9π = 60π
OpenStudy (jim766):
just square the 3 not the π
OpenStudy (hlambach):
ahhhh, okay got it! Thanks!
OpenStudy (jim766):
yw

of course not one of your answer choices...
OpenStudy (jim766):
again...
OpenStudy (hlambach):
SA = 3*17 pi + 3^2pi
SA = 3 x 17π + 9π
SA = 60π
OpenStudy (hlambach):
?
OpenStudy (hlambach):
haha, ikr! my teacher is... yeah, just no... haha :)

its all good.... lol
OpenStudy (hlambach):
:) so,just to make sure, SA= 60π, right?
OpenStudy (jim766):
yes
OpenStudy (hlambach):
Sweet, okay thanks for all your help, another question is about to come up, though, haha
