diameter is 2 and height 15
First, we need to find the radius of the cylinder. Since the diameter is 2, the radius is half of that, which is 1.
To find the area of a circle (base of the cylinder), we use the formula A = πr^2.
Therefore, the area of one base is:
A = 3.14 x 1^2
A = 3.14 square centimeters
Since there are two bases, the total area of the two bases is:
2 x 3.14 = 6.28 square centimeters
Therefore, the correct answer is:
6.28 square centimeters
