About this tool: Solid Volume and Surface Area
Calculate volume and total surface area of a cylinder, cone or sphere.
Choose a cylinder, cone or sphere. Radius and height must use the same length unit; height is unnecessary for a sphere. Surface area includes the bases of a cylinder or cone, while volume is expressed in cubed input units.
