Exam-ready answer • 04 Mark

Answer

Radius, r = 3.5 cm

Height of cylinder, h = 14 cm

Total surface area of the cylinder = 2πr(h + r)

Total surface area of one hemisphere = 3πr²

Sum of the total surface areas of all three parts:

= 2πr(h + r) + 2(3πr²)

= 2πrh + 2πr² + 6πr²

= 2πrh + 8πr²

= 2πr(h + 4r)

Substituting the values:

= 2 × \frac{22}{7} × 3.5 × (14 + 4 × 3.5)

= 22 × (14 + 14)

= 22 × 28

= 616 cm²

Therefore, the required surface area is 616 cm².
