frustum surface area calculator
A Conical Frustum Calculator can also allow the user to find the volume, lateral surface area, and total surface area of a truncated cone by entering the top radius, bottom radius, and height. It can be used in engineering, designing, and learning, and provides accurate measurements in real time.
truncated cone volume solver
The Conical Frustum Calculator is an online tool that computes the volume, lateral surface area, and total surface area of a truncated cone (conical frustum) using the top radius, bottom radius, and height. By entering these dimensions, the calculator provides instant, accurate results using the standard formulas:
\[ Volume = \frac{1}{3} \pi h (r^{2}_{1}+r_{1}r^{2}+r^{2}_{2}) \]
\[ \textrm{Lateral Surface Area }=\pi (r_{1}+r_{2})\iota, \iota=\sqrt{(r_{2}-r_{1})^{2}+h^{2}} \]
\[ \textrm{Total Surface Area}= \textrm{Lateral Area} + \pi(r^{2}_{1}+r^{2}_{2}) \]
This tool is useful for engineers, architects, students, and designers working with truncated cone shapes in construction, manufacturing, or design. The interface is simple, responsive, and requires no installation, delivering fast results while minimizing manual calculation errors.
