I think you want the total surface area here. Now, it appears that the object will be a cylinder, based on the problem description. The formula for that is:
\n" ); document.write( "TSA = \"2%2AB+%2B+C%2Ah\".
\n" ); document.write( "which is expressed as
\n" ); document.write( "TSA = \"2%2Api%2Ar%5E2+%2B+2%2Api%2Ar%2Ah\".
\n" ); document.write( "We know diameter = 2m, so radius = 1m and h = 3m. Putting these into our formula, we get\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "SA = \"2%2Api%2A1%5E2+%2B+2%2Api%2A1%2A3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "SA = \"8pi\" meters^2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Unfortunately, this doesn't match with any answers you have. If [C] were 8m^2 instead of 18m^2, we would have an answer.
\n" ); document.write( "
