Find the area $ A $ of a cylinder if radius $r = 12$ and height $h = 10$.

$A = 528\pi$

STEP 1: find base area $ AB $

To find base area $ AB $ use formula:

$$ AB = r^2 \cdot \pi $$

After substituting $ r = 12 $ we have:

$$ AB = 12^2 \cdot \pi $$ $$ AB = 144 \cdot \pi $$

STEP 2: find lateral area $ AL $

To find lateral area $ AL $ use formula:

$$ AL = 2 \cdot r \cdot h \cdot \pi $$

After substituting $ r = 12 $ and $ h = 10 $ we have:

$$ AL = 24 \cdot 10 \cdot \pi $$$$ AL = 240\pi $$

STEP 3: find area $ A $

To find area $ A $ use formula:

$$ A = 2 AB + AL $$

After substituting $ AB = 144\pi $ and $ AL = 240\pi $ we have:

$$ A = 2 \cdot 144\pi + 240\pi $$ $$ A = 288\pi + 240\pi $$ $$ A = 528\pi $$
