Surface area of a cylinder:
The area of the two circles at each end plus the circumference of the circle times the height of the cylinder. Since the area of a circle is pi%2Ar%5E2 and the circumference is 2%2Api%2Ar, the formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:
SA+=+2%2A%28pi%2Ar%5E2%29+%2B+%282%2Api%2Ar%29%2Ah
