Surface Area Calculator
Calculate surface area and volume for common 3D shapes including cube, rectangular prism, sphere, cylinder, and cone.
3D shape surface area calculator
The English SERP for surface area calculator is a 3D-shape hub. This page therefore keeps one compact calculator for common solids and links out to dedicated pages when a shape needs more input modes or reverse solving.
| Shape | Primary output |
|---|---|
| Cube | Total surface area and volume from side length. |
| Rectangular prism | Total and lateral area from length, width, and height. |
| Sphere | Surface area and volume from radius. |
| Cylinder | Total, lateral, and base areas from radius and height. |
| Cone | Total, lateral, and base areas from radius and height. |
