TSA 2 p r rh Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder. In terms of p 2pr h r squnit. The formula for the total surface area of a cylinder is given as.
The below given formulas can be used to show that the surface area of a sphere and cylinder of the same radius and height are in the ratio 2.
In this formula a a is the total surface area r r is the radius of the circles at both ends h h is the height and p p is the irrational number that we simplify and shorten to 3141595 3141595 or even shorter 314 314. Surface area of a sphere. The formula for finding the area of a cylinder is A 2pr 2 2prh. The surface area S S of a cylinder is determined by the following formula S 2prh r S 2 p r h r where r r is the base radius length h h is the height of a cylinder and p 314 p 314.
