STEP 1: find radius $ r $

To find radius $ r $ use formula:

$$ d = 2 \cdot r $$

After substituting $d = 4\, \text{in}$ we have:

$$ 4\, \text{in} = 2 \cdot r $$ $$ r = \dfrac{ 4\, \text{in} }{ 2 } $$ $$ r = 2\, \text{in} $$

STEP 2: find base area $ AB $

To find base area $ AB $ use formula:

$$ AB = r^2 \cdot \pi $$

After substituting $r = 2\, \text{in}$ we have:

$$ AB = \left( 2\, \text{in} \right)^{2} \cdot \pi $$ $$ AB = 4\, \text{in}^2 \cdot \pi $$

STEP 3: find lateral area $ AL $

To find lateral area $ AL $ use formula:

$$ AL = 2 \cdot h \cdot r \cdot \pi $$

After substituting $r = 2\, \text{in}$ and $h = 5\, \text{in}$ we have:

$$ AL = 10\, \text{in} \cdot 2\, \text{in} \cdot \pi $$$$ AL = 20\pi\, \text{in}^2 $$

STEP 4: find area $ A $

To find area $ A $ use formula:

$$ A = 2 AB + AL $$

After substituting $AB = 4\pi\, \text{in}^2$ and $AL = 20\pi\, \text{in}^2$ we have:

$$ A = 2 \cdot 4\pi\, \text{in}^2 + 20\pi\, \text{in}^2 $$ $$ A = 8\pi\, \text{in}^2 + 20\pi\, \text{in}^2 $$ $$ A = 28\pi\, \text{in}^2 $$
