[2 pi times (the radius squared)] plus [(2 pi times the radius) times the height]

the parentheses are according to the order of operations

How do you find lateral area of a cylinder?

To find the lateral area of a cylinder, multiply the circumference (πd) by the height (πdh). After you have this, you can find the total surface area by adding twice the area of the base (2πr2).(Lateral area = πdh), (Surface area = πdh + 2πr2).


What is the lateral surface area of a cylinder with a height of 4cm and a width of 10cm?

A cylinder with a height of 4cm and a width of 10cm has a lateral area of about 125.66cm2


A can of soup is in the shape of a cylinder with radius 3.8cm and height 11cm what is the surface area of the can to the nearest tenth?

First, you figure out what the area of the top of the cylinder is, which in case is pi times radius squared. Then, you multiply the answer by two. Next, you find the lateral surface area of the cylinder by multiplying the circumference times the height. Since the problem only gives us the radius of the cylinder, we use the formula, two times pi times radius times the height, in order to find the lateral surface area of the cylinder. Now the final step. Add the answer you got for the first step, plus the lateral surface area of the cylinder, and this should give you the surface area of the can of soup.


What is the lateral surface area of a cylinder with the radius of 7 feet and height of 16 feet?

The lateral surface area of a cylinder with the radius of 7 feet and height of 16 feet equals 703.72 feet2


The lateral surface area of cone A is equal to the lateral surface area of cylinder B.?

It is possible for some cones A and cylinders B. But in general, the assertion is false.
