How to use Cylinder Calculator

Enter the base radius and the height and the calculator returns the volume, base area, lateral surface and total surface area.

Frequently asked questions

What is the volume of a cylinder?

Volume = π × r² × h, the base area times the height.

What is lateral surface area?

The curved side surface only: 2πrh, excluding the two circular ends.

How is total surface area found?

Total surface area = 2πrh + 2πr², adding the curved side to both circular bases.
