  2. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    The lateral surface area of a right circular cone is = where is the radius of the circle at the bottom of the cone and is the slant height of the cone. [4] The surface area of the bottom circle of a cone is the same as for any circle, . Thus, the total surface area of a right circular cone can be expressed as each of the following: Radius and ...

  3. Lateral surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_surface

    For a cube the lateral surface area would be the area of the four sides. If the edge of the cube has length a, the area of one square face A face = a ⋅ a = a 2. 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]

  4. Hypercone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercone

    In geometry, a hypercone (or spherical cone) is the figure in the 4-dimensional Euclidean space represented by the equation x 2 + y 2 + z 2 − w 2 = 0. {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}-w^{2}=0.} It is a quadric surface, and is one of the possible 3- manifolds which are 4-dimensional equivalents of the conical surface in 3 dimensions.

  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 ...

  6. Ruled surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruled_surface

    The generators of any ruled surface coalesce with one family of its asymptotic lines. For developable surfaces they also form one family of its lines of curvature. It can be shown that any developable surface is a cone, a cylinder, or a surface formed by all tangents of a space curve. [5] Developable connection of two ellipses and its development

  7. Frustum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frustum

    The Egyptians knew the correct formula for the volume of such a truncated square pyramid, but no proof of this equation is given in the Moscow papyrus. The volume of a conical or pyramidal frustum is the volume of the solid before slicing its "apex" off, minus the volume of this "apex":

  8. Nose cone design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nose_cone_design

    y is the radius at any point x, as x varies from 0, at the tip of the nose cone, to L. The equations define the two-dimensional profile of the nose shape. The full body of revolution of the nose cone is formed by rotating the profile around the centerline C ⁄ L. While the equations describe the "perfect" shape, practical nose cones are often ...

  9. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_angle

    The external surface area A of the cap equals r2 only if solid angle of the cone is exactly 1 steradian. Hence, in this figure θ = A /2 and r = 1 . The solid angle of a cone with its apex at the apex of the solid angle, and with apex angle 2 θ , is the area of a spherical cap on a unit sphere
