  2. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    This formula holds whether or not the cylinder is a right cylinder. [7] This formula may be established by using Cavalieri's principle. A solid elliptic right cylinder with the semi-axes a and b for the base ellipse and height h. In more generality, by the same principle, the volume of any cylinder is the product of the area of a base and the ...

  3. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    This is because the volume of a cylinder can be obtained in the same way as the volume of a prism with the same height and the same area of the base. Therefore, simply multiply the area of the base by the height: =. Since the area of a circle of radius , which is the base of the cylinder, is given by = it follows that: = [2] or even =.

    Within the cylinder is the cone whose apex is at the center of one base of the cylinder and whose base is the other base of the cylinder. By the Pythagorean theorem , the plane located y {\displaystyle y} units above the "equator" intersects the sphere in a circle of radius r 2 − y 2 {\textstyle {\sqrt {r^{2}-y^{2}}}} and area π ( r 2 − y ...

  7. On the Sphere and Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Sphere_and_Cylinder

    The ratio of the volume of a sphere to the volume of its circumscribed cylinder is 2:3, as was determined by Archimedes. The principal formulae derived in On the Sphere and Cylinder are those mentioned above: the surface area of the sphere, the volume of the contained ball, and surface area and volume of the cylinder.

  9. 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 ...
