About the Cylinder Volume calculator
Find the volume, base area and side surface of a cylinder.
How to use the Cylinder Volume calculator
- Enter the Base Radius (r) and the Vertical Extrusion (h) (the height).
- Press Calculate Cylinder Volume.
Formula and method
V = Ļ Ć r² Ć h. The lateral surface is 2Ļrh.
Worked example
A cylinder with radius 3 and height 10 holds about 282.74 cubic units.
Tips
- 1,000 cm³ equals 1 litre.
- Use the same units for radius and height.
