Cylinder Calculator
Calculate cylinder volume, base area, lateral area, total surface area, diameter, height, radius, and axial-section values.
Cylinder volume and surface area
English search intent for a cylinder calculator expects a right circular cylinder solver, not only a single volume formula. This page calculates volume, base area, lateral area, total surface area, diameter, and axial-section values.
r is radius and h is height.
Total surface area includes the curved side and both circular bases.
Supported known values
| Known values | Solved values |
|---|---|
| Radius and height | Volume, areas, diameter, and axial section. |
| Diameter and height | Radius first, then all dependent outputs. |
| Volume and height | Radius and diameter plus areas. |
| Volume and radius | Height plus areas. |
| Total surface area and radius | Height, volume, and area breakdown. |
