If the cylinder has radius R and length L , the curved part of the surface has area 2piRL and each of the ends has area piR^2. The total surface area is the sum of the curved part plus two ends.
The curved surface area is 113.1 units2
1. Find the surface area of the whole cylinder 2. Find the area of one of the two circles on either end of the cylinder 3. Multiply the circle's area by two and subtract their area from the total surface area 4. Now you have the surface area of an unclosed cylinder!
It is a cylinder
The curved surface area is 314.16 square units.
