How do you do the pythagorean theorem?

You take a right triangle and find the lengths of the two sides that are vertical and horizontal. Then, using the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2, find the length of C

(aka: Hypotenuse)

for this case we have that by definition, the surface area of a cylinder is given by:

where:

r: it is the radius of the cylinder

h: it is the height of the cylinder

we can also rewrite it as:

where:

la: it's the lateral area

ba: area of the base
