To find the surface area of a cylinder, use the formula:
Surface Area = 2πrh + 2πr^2
Given:
Height (h) = 3 yards
Radius (r) = 2 yards
Substituting the values into the formula:
Surface Area = 2(3.14)(2)(3) + 2(3.14)(2)^2
Surface Area = 37.68 + 25.12
Surface Area = 62.8
Therefore, the correct answer is 62.8.
