Provide an explanation and proof for your answer to receive full credit.

The answer to your question is 414.48 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

height = 6 ft

diameter = 1 ft

# of fence posts = 12

amount of paint = ?

Formula

Area of a cylinder = πr² + 2πrh

Process

1.- Find the area of 1 cylinder

Area = (3.14 x 0.5) + (2 x 3.14 x 0.5 x 6)

Area = 15.7 + 18.84

Area = 34.54 ft²

2.- Calculate the area of 12 fencepost

Total area = 12 x 34.54

                = 414.48 ft²
