A cylinder is a 3D shape with a base that is a circle and a parallel opposite face that is identical. A cross-section of a cylinder made parallel to the base will be congruent to the base.

The surface area is the total area of all the surfaces of a closed 3D shape. The surfaces include all faces and any curved surfaces.
