Inventory only the painted surface shown: the curved side is included, while the open top and unpainted bottom are excluded. Unwrap that side into a rectangle whose length is the base circumference and whose width is the cylinder height. Multiplying those dimensions gives an exact lateral area in square feet without adding either circular base.
