How do you calculate the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

The surface area of a cylinder is calculated using the formula: Surface Area = 2πr(h + r), where r is the radius and h is the height.

What is a net in relation to 3-D shapes?

Back

A net is a two-dimensional representation of a 3-D shape that can be folded to form the shape. For example, the net of a cube consists of six squares.
