Surface Area of Prisms and Cylinders
Surface area is the sum of the areas of all surfaces of a figure. The lateral faces of a prism are parallelograms that connect the bases. The lateral surface of a cylinder is the curved surface.

Additional Example 1: Finding Surface Area
Find the surface area of each figure to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for p.
A. S = 2pr2 + 2prh
= 2p(42) + 2p(4)(6)
= 80p in2  in2
B. S = 2B + Ph
= 2( • 8 • 3) + (18)(10) 1 2
= 204 ft2

Additional Example 2: Exploring the Effects of Changing Dimensions
A cylinder has diameter 8 in. and height 3 in. Explain whether tripling the height would have the same effect on the surface area as tripling the radius.
They would not have the same effect. Tripling the radius would increase the surface area more than tripling the height.

A cylinder has diameter 6 in. and height 2 in. Explain whether doubling the height would have the same effect on the surface area as doubling the radius.
Original Dimensions
Double the Height
Double the Radius
S = 2pr2 + 2pr(2h)
S = 2pr² + 2prh
S = 2pr2 + 2p(2r)h
= 2p(3)2 + 2p(3)(4)
= 2p(3)2 + 2p(3)(2)
= 2p(6) 2 + 2p(3)(2)
= 30p in2 ≈ 94.2 in2
= 42p in2 ≈ in2
= 84p in2 ≈ in2
They would not have the same effect. Doubling the radius would increase the surface area more than doubling the height.

Additional Example 3: Application
A cylindrical soup can is 7.6 cm in diameter and 11.2 cm tall. What is the area of the label that covers the side of the can?
Only the lateral surface needs to be covered.
L = 2rh
= 2(3.8)(11.2)
Diameter = 7.6 cm, so r = 3.8 cm.
≈ cm2

A cylindrical storage tank that is 6 ft in diameter and 12 ft tall needs to be painted. The paint will cover 100 square feet per gallon. How many gallons will it take to paint the tank?
S = 2r2 + 2rh
The diameter is 6 ft, so r = 3 ft.
= 2(32) + 2(3)(12)
≈ ft2
Move the decimal point 2 places to the left to divide by 100.
≈ gal
