- r represents the Radius.
- h represents the Height.
LaTeX formula
If you are working in a TeX based editor you could use this TeX formula to calculate the cylinder surface area.
\mathrm{C}=2\cdot\pi\cdot r\cdot\left( r+\mathrm{h}\right)
How To Calculate The Cylinder Surface Area Your Self
Calculating the surface area is rather simple when you know the formula presented above. Follow these steps:
Write down this formula:
- Then change the following variables with your values:
- r shall be changed with the Radius of your cylinder. As an example r could be changed to 10.
- h shall be changed with the Height of your cylinder. As an example h could be changed to 10.
- Now you can enter this in to your calculator and you will get your answer.
