Step 3: Calculatea
acan be calculated using the theorem of Pythagoras:
a=
√
r^2 +h^2
Step 4: Calculate the area of the circular base (Ab)
Ab=r^2
Step 5: Calculate the area of the curved walls (Aw)
Aw=ra
=r
√
r^2 +h^2
Step 6: Find the sum of the areasA
A=Ab+Aw
=r^2 +r
√
r^2 +h^2
=r
(
r+
√
r^2 +h^2
)
