How to Use

  1. Enter the "radius or base area" and "height" of the cylinder you want to calculate.
  2. The "volume of the cylinder" will be calculated automatically.

What is a Cylinder?

A cylinder is a three-dimensional shape with circular planes at the top and bottom, and a vertical side connecting them.

The characteristics of a cylinder are as follows:

  • The base and top are **circles of the same size**.
  • The side is **a vertical extension of the circumference of the circle**.
  • In the case of a right circular cylinder, **the height is perpendicular to the central axis of the circle**.

How to Calculate the Volume of a Cylinder

The volume of a cylinder can be calculated using the following formula:

V = π r2 h

Where:

  • V = Volume of the cylinder
  • r = Radius of the cylinder
  • h = Height of the cylinder
  • π ≈ 3.141592

Calculation Steps

  1. Calculate the base area: A = π r2
  2. Multiply the base area by the height: V = A × h

Examples

Example 1: Cylinder with radius 5cm and height 10cm

1. Calculate the base area

A = π × (5)2 = 3.141592 × 25 = 78.54 cm²

2. Calculate the volume

V = 78.54 × 10 = 785.4 cm3

Example 2: Cylinder with radius 0.2m and height 1.5m

1. Calculate the base area

A = π × (0.2)2 = 3.141592 × 0.04 = 0.126 m²

2. Calculate the volume

V = 0.126 × 1.5 = 0.189 m3
