  2. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    The area of the base of a cylinder is the area of a circle (in this case we define that the circle has a radius with measure ): B = π r 2 {\displaystyle B=\pi r^{2}} . To calculate the total area of a right circular cylinder, you simply add the lateral area to the area of the two bases:

  3. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    Having radius r and altitude (height) h, the surface area of a right circular cylinder, oriented so that its axis is vertical, consists of three parts: the area of the top base: πr 2; the area of the bottom base: πr 2; the area of the side: 2πrh; The area of the top and bottom bases is the same, and is called the base area, B.

  4. Lateral surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_surface

    Thus the lateral surface of a cube will be the area of four faces: 4a 2. More generally, the lateral surface area of a prism is the sum of the areas of the sides of the prism. [1] This lateral surface area can be calculated by multiplying the perimeter of the base by the height of the prism. [2] For a right circular cylinder of radius r and ...

  5. Surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_area

    A sphere of radius r has surface area 4πr 2.. The surface area (symbol A) of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies. [1] The mathematical definition of surface area in the presence of curved surfaces is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of one-dimensional curves, or of the surface area for polyhedra (i.e., objects with ...

    The basic quantities describing a sphere (meaning a 2-sphere, a 2-dimensional surface inside 3-dimensional space) will be denoted by the following variables r {\displaystyle r} is the radius, C = 2 π r {\displaystyle C=2\pi r} is the circumference (the length of any one of its great circles ),

    where A is the area of a squircle with minor radius r, is the gamma function. A = ( k + 1 ) ( k + 2 ) π r 2 {\displaystyle A=(k+1)(k+2)\pi r^{2}} where A is the area of an epicycloid with the smaller circle of radius r and the larger circle of radius kr ( k ∈ N {\displaystyle k\in \mathbb {N} } ), assuming the initial point lies on the ...

  8. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    Archimedes showed that the surface area of a sphere is exactly four times the area of a flat disk of the same radius, and the volume enclosed by the sphere is exactly 2/3 of the volume of a cylinder of the same height and radius. Most basic formulas for surface area can be obtained by cutting surfaces and flattening them out (see: developable ...

  9. Solid of revolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_of_revolution

    The area of a ring is π(R 2 − r 2), where R is the outer radius (in this case f(y)), and r is the inner radius (in this case g(y)). The volume of each infinitesimal disc is therefore πf(y) 2 dy. The limit of the Riemann sum of the volumes of the discs between a and b becomes integral (1).
