    1. Substitute s=2s = 2 and h=4h = 4 into the formula:

      SA=2(22)+4(2)(4)SA = 2(2^2) + 4(2)(4)

    2. Calculate each part:
      • 22=42^2 = 4, so 2×4=82 \times 4 = 8
      • 4×2×4=324 \times 2 \times 4 = 32
    3. Add the results:

      SA=8+32=40SA = 8 + 32 = 40

    Answer:
    The surface area is 40.
