Well...Sir or Madam..
Surface Area of a Cylinder = 2 pi r 2 + 2 pi r h
(h is the height of the cylinder, r is the radius of the top)
Surface Area = Areas of top and bottom +Area of the side
Surface Area = 2(Area of top) + (perimeter of top)* height
Surface Area = 2(pi r 2) + (2 pi r)* h
That's how you do it..
