Question:

What is the area........................?

If a circular silo is 34 ft tall and has a radius of 14 feet then what is the area? I know how to get the area of a circle but what do I do with the height?

Answer:

Cylinder (whole surface) Areas of top and bottom circles + Area of the side 2(pi * radius^2) + 2 * pi * radius * height 2(3.14159 * 14^2) + 2 * 3.14159 * 14 * 34 =2(3.14159 * 196) + 2990.8 = 2(615.8) + 2990.8 =1231.5 + 2990.8 = 4222.3 Ft Squared
