T S A = 1430.716

Explanation:

enter image source here
OA = h = 24 cm, OB r = 12 cm, , AF = h_1 = 24-16 = 8 cmOA=h=24cm,OBr=12cm,,AF=h1=2416=8cm

FD = r_2 =( h_1 /h)*r = (8/ 24) * 6 = 2 cmFD=r2=(h1h)r=(824)6=2cm

AC = l = sqrt(h^2 + r^2) = sqrt(24^2 + 12^2) = 26.8328 cm AC=l=h2+r2=242+122=26.8328cm

AE = l_1 = sqrt(h_1^2 + r_2^2) = sqrt(8^2 + 2^2) = 8.2462 cmAE=l1=h21+r22=82+22=8.2462cm

pir^2 = pi*12^2 = 452.3893 cm^2πr2=π122=452.3893cm2

pir_2^2 = pi*2^2 = 12.5664 cm^2πr22=π22=12.5664cm2

#pirl= pi* 12 * 26.8328 = 1011.5727 cm^2

#pir_2l_1 = pi* 2 * 8.2462 = 51.8124 cm^2

Total surface area = (pir^2 + pir_2^2 + pi.r.l - pi.r_2.l_1)(πr2+πr22+π.r.lπ.r2.l1)

T S A = 458.3893 + 12.5664 + 1011.5727 - 51.8124 = **1430.716 cm^2**TSA=458.3893+12.5664+1011.572751.8124=1430.716cm2
