Use the formula for the lateral area and surface area of a cylinder.
Lateral Area: ≈ 113.1 cm^2
Surface Area: ≈ 169.6 cm^2
Consider the given solid.
The given solid is a cylinder. It has a radius of 3 centimeters and a height of 6 centimeters. Let's first calculate the lateral area and then the surface area.
To calculate the lateral area, we can use the known formula where h is the height of the cylinder and r is the radius of the base.
r= 3, h= 6

The lateral area is about 113.1 square centimeters.
To calculate the surface area of a cylinder, we can use the known formula where h is the height of the cylinder and r is the radius of the base. S=2Ï€ rh+2Ï€ r^2 Earlier, we found that 2Ï€ rh is about 113.1. Moreover, we have that r is 3. Let's substitute these values into the formula and calculate S.
The surface area of the cylinder is about 169.6 square centimeters.
