Understanding the Math
The Surface Area of Cylinder computes the result using fundamental principles of mathematics. Calculate the total surface area of a cylinder.
Formula Definition
Result = (2 × π × r × h) + (2 × π × r × r)
This formula is applied directly to the inputs provided above. Ensure all units are consistent (e.g., all lengths in meters) before calculation to guarantee accuracy.
Example Problem
Given:
- Radius (r) = 2
- Height (h) = 12
Solution:
Substitute values into the formula:
Result = (2 × π × 2 × 12) + (2 × π × 2 × 2)
Quick Notes
- Double-check input units. Inconsistent units (e.g. feet vs meters) will yield incorrect results.
- Calculations are performed with high-precision floating point arithmetic.
