🔷 Important Formulas:



#### 🟢 Cylinder (Total Surface Area):
> SA = 2πr² + 2πrh = 2πr(r + h)
> - r = radius
> - h = height
> - Includes both circular bases and lateral surface.

#### 🟠 Cone (Total Surface Area):
> SA = πr² + πrℓ = πr(r + ℓ)
> - r = radius
> - ℓ = slant height (given directly in diagrams)
> - Includes base circle and lateral surface.

## Problem-by-Problem Solutions:

---

1) Cylinder: r = 8 ft, h = 12 ft



SA = 2πr(r + h)
= 2π(8)(8 + 12)
= 2π(8)(20)
= 320π
≈ 320 × 3.1416 ≈ 1005.31 ft²

Answer: 1005.31 ft²

---

2) Cone: r = 4 in, ℓ = 6 in



SA = πr(r + ℓ)
= π(4)(4 + 6)
= π(4)(10)
= 40π
≈ 40 × 3.1416 ≈ 125.66 in²

Answer: 125.66 in²

---

3) Cylinder: r = 6 yd, h = 8 yd



SA = 2πr(r + h)
= 2π(6)(6 + 8)
= 2π(6)(14)
= 168π
≈ 168 × 3.1416 ≈ 527.79 yd²

Answer: 527.79 yd²

---

4) Cone: r = 5 mm, ℓ = 13 mm



SA = πr(r + ℓ)
= π(5)(5 + 13)
= π(5)(18)
= 90π
≈ 90 × 3.1416 ≈ 282.74 mm²

Answer: 282.74 mm²

---

5) Cone: r = 6 mm, ℓ = 14 mm



SA = πr(r + ℓ)
= π(6)(6 + 14)
= π(6)(20)
= 120π
≈ 120 × 3.1416 ≈ 376.99 mm²

Answer: 376.99 mm²

---

6) Cylinder: r = 6 cm, h = 8 cm



SA = 2πr(r + h)
= 2π(6)(6 + 8)
= 2π(6)(14)
= 168π
≈ 168 × 3.1416 ≈ 527.79 cm²

Answer: 527.79 cm²

---

7) Cylinder: r = 7 yd, h = 10 yd



SA = 2πr(r + h)
= 2π(7)(7 + 10)
= 2π(7)(17)
= 238π
≈ 238 × 3.1416 ≈ 747.70 yd²

Answer: 747.70 yd²

---

8) Cone: r = 7 ft, ℓ = 10 ft



SA = πr(r + ℓ)
= π(7)(7 + 10)
= π(7)(17)
= 119π
≈ 119 × 3.1416 ≈ 373.85 ft²

Answer: 373.85 ft²

---

9) Cone: r = 4 cm, ℓ = 6 cm



SA = πr(r + ℓ)
= π(4)(4 + 6)
= π(4)(10)
= 40π
≈ 40 × 3.1416 ≈ 125.66 cm²

Answer: 125.66 cm²

---
