Answer

\boxed{\text{Total iced area} \approx 1696 \text{ cm}^2, \text{Total volume} \approx 13666 \text{ cm}^3}

Steps

Step 1 :A1=2πr1h=2π(20)(6)=753.98 cm2

Step 2 :A2=2πr2h=2π(15)(6)=565.49 cm2

Step 3 :A3=2πr3h=2π(10)(6)=376.99 cm2

Step 4 :Atotal=A1+A2+A3=753.98+565.49+376.99=1696.46 cm2

Step 5 :V1=πr12h=π(20)2(6)=7539.82 cm3

Step 6 :V2=πr22h=π(15)2(6)=4241.15 cm3

Step 7 :V3=πr32h=π(10)2(6)=1884.96 cm3

Step 8 :Vtotal=V1+V2+V3=7539.82+4241.15+1884.96=13665.93 cm3

Step 9 :\boxed{\text{Total iced area} \approx 1696 \text{ cm}^2, \text{Total volume} \approx 13666 \text{ cm}^3}
