Height of a Right Cylinder formula
\( h = V \;/\; \pi \; r^2\)
Symbol	English	Metric
\( h \) = height	\( in \)	\( mm \)
\( r \) = radius	\( in \)	\( mm \)
\( \pi \) = Pi	\(3.141 592 653 ...\)
\( V \) = volume	\( in^3 \)	\( mm^3 \)

 

Lateral Surface Area of a Right Cylinder formula
\( A_l = 2\; \pi\; r\; h \)
Symbol	English	Metric
\( A_l \) = lateral surface area (side)	\( in^2 \)	\( mm^2 \)
\( h \) = height	\( in \)	\( mm \)
\( r \) = radius	\( in \)	\( mm \)

 

Radius of a Right Cylinder formula
\( r = \sqrt{  V \;/\; \pi \; h } \)
Symbol	English	Metric
\( r \) = radius	\( in \)	\( mm \)
\( h \) = height	\( in \)	\( mm \)
\( \pi \) = Pi	\(3.141 592 653 ...\)
\( V \) = volume	\( in^3 \)	\( mm^3 \)

 

Surface Area of a Right cylinder formula
\( A_s = 2\; \pi\; r\;h+2\; \pi\; r^2 \)
Symbol	English	Metric
\( A_s \) = surface area (bottom, top, side)	\( in^2 \)	\( mm^2 \)
\( h \) = height	\( in \)	\( mm \)
\( r \) = radius	\( in \)	\( mm \)

 

Volume of a Right cylinder formula
\( V = \pi\; r^2\;h \)
Symbol	English	Metric
\( V \) = volume	\( in^3 \)	\( mm^3 \)
\( h \) = height	\( in \)	\( mm \)
\( r \) = radius	\( in \)	\( mm \)
