Instantly calculate the magnitude, slant height, and total surface area of a right circular cone.
A cone is a 3D shape that tapers smoothly from a flat circular base to a point called the apex.
V = (1/3) × π × r² × h
A = πr(r + s)
where s is slant height
s = √(r² + h²)
Calculated using Pythagoras theorem.
The volume of a cone is exactly one-third the volume of a cylinder with the same radius and height.
The slant height is the distance from the outer edge of the base to the apex (tip) of the cone. It is always longer than the vertical height.
Yes, but you first need to find the vertical height using Pythagoras theorem: h = √(s² - r²).
