How to Find the Area of a Cylinder?
Area of cylinder is defined as sum of curved surface area and the area of two circular bases.
Area of cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr2 = 2πr(h+r)
where,'r' is the radius of the cylinder and 'h' is the height of the cylinder and π(Pi) is the mathematical constant with an approximate value of 3.14.
Solved example:
Find total surface area of cylinder whose radius is 5 units and height is 6 units.
Solution:
Area of cylinder = 2πr(h+r)
= 2 × 3.14 × 5 × (6 + 5)
= (31.4) × (11)
= 345.4 square units.
Similarly, you can try the calculator to find the area of cylinders with the following height and radius.
- Height = 10 units and radius = 7 units
- Height = 13 units and radius = 9 units
