What is the surface area of the cylinder with height 8 mi and radius 2 mi

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:

SA = 2πr^2 + 2πrh

where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder.

Plugging in the values, we get:

SA = 2π(2)^2 + 2π(2)(8)
SA = 2π(4) + 2π(16)
SA = 8π + 32π
SA = 40π

Therefore, the surface area of the cylinder with height 8 mi and radius 2 mi is 40π square miles.

wrong

I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation.

Given:
Height (h) = 8 mi
Radius (r) = 2 mi

Formula for surface area of a cylinder:
SA = 2πr(r + h)

Substitute the values:
SA = 2π(2)(2 + 8)
SA = 2π(2)(10)
SA = 40π square miles

Therefore, the correct surface area of the cylinder with height 8 mi and radius 2 mi is 40π square miles. Thank you for your patience.
