hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "Surface area = Pi x radius^2 + (Pi x diameter) x height.
\n" ); document.write( "Surface area = Pi x 7^2 + (Pi x 14)x 8
\n" ); document.write( "Surface area = 505.80 cm^2
\n" ); document.write( "The surface area of the can is found by
\n" ); document.write( "using the circumference of the can as
\n" ); document.write( "one side of the rectangle that is the
\n" ); document.write( "opened can. The other side is the height.
\n" ); document.write( "You then use Pi x r^2 for the end of the can.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
