Here are the essential concepts you must grasp in order to answer the question correctly.
Related Rates
Related rates are a concept in calculus that deals with the relationship between different rates of change. When two or more variables are related by an equation, the rate of change of one variable can be expressed in terms of the rate of change of another. In this context, we are interested in how the surface area of the cylinder changes with respect to time as the height changes, while keeping the radius constant.

Differentiation
Differentiation is a fundamental concept in calculus that involves finding the derivative of a function. The derivative represents the rate of change of a function with respect to a variable. In this problem, we will differentiate the surface area equation with respect to time to find the relationship between the rates of change of surface area and height.

Implicit Differentiation
Implicit differentiation is a technique used to differentiate equations that define one variable in terms of another without explicitly solving for one variable. In this case, we will apply implicit differentiation to the surface area equation to relate the change in surface area to the change in height, while treating the radius as a constant. This allows us to find the desired relationship between dS/dt and dh/dt.
