  2. Prism (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(geometry)

    The volume of a prism is the product of the area of the base by the height, i.e. the distance between the two base faces (in the case of a non-right prism, note that this means the perpendicular distance). The volume is therefore: =, where B is the base area and h is the height.

  3. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    b = the base side of the prism's triangular base, h = the height of the prism's triangular base L = the length of the prism see above for general triangular base Isosceles triangular prism: b = the base side of the prism's triangular base, h = the height of the prism's triangular base

  4. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The area of the top and bottom bases is the same, and is called the base area, B. The area of the side is known as the lateral area, L. An open cylinder does not include either top or bottom elements, and therefore has surface area (lateral area) = The surface area of the solid right circular cylinder is made up the sum of all three components ...

  5. 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 =.

  7. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    The formula for the area of a circle (more properly called the area enclosed by a circle or the area of a disk) is based on a similar method. Given a circle of radius r, it is possible to partition the circle into sectors, as shown in the figure to the right. Each sector is approximately triangular in shape, and the sectors can be rearranged to ...

  8. Lateral surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_surface

    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 height h, the lateral area is the area of the side surface of the cylinder: A = 2πrh. For a pyramid, the lateral surface area is the sum of the areas of all of the triangular faces ...
