What is the formula for cylinder

Mathematics

ScanSolve AI Answer

Answer

The common formulas for a cylinder are for its volume and surface area.

  • The formula for the volume of a cylinder is:
V=πr2hV = \pi r^2 h

where rr is the radius of the base and hh is the height of the cylinder.

  • The formula for the total surface area of a cylinder is:
SA=2πr2+2πrhSA = 2 \pi r^2 + 2 \pi r h

where rr is the radius of the base and hh is the height of the cylinder. The 2πr22 \pi r^2 part represents the area of the two circular bases, and 2πrh2 \pi r h represents the area of the curved side.
