Formulas
Core equations used by this calculator.
How to use
Choose sphere, cylinder, cone, torus, or frustum
Sphere needs r>0. Cylinder and cone also need h>0. Torus needs major R greater than tube r. Frustum needs bases R, r and height h>0.
Read volume and surface
Unit sphere V=4π/3. Cone r=3, h=4 has slant 5. Cylinder r=1, h=1 has V=π.
Example calculations
Common configurations with formula and result.
Unit sphere
r = 1
3-4 cone
r = 3, h = 4
Unit cylinder
r = 1, h = 1
Frustum 2-1-3
R = 2, r = 1, h = 3

Frequently asked questions
Key distinctions behind the calculation.
Is this the circle calculator?
No. The 2-D circle page is /calc/math/circle. This engine is 3-D volume and surface.
Is /cone the ISO 5167-5 cone meter?
No. The ISO 5167-5 cone meter is /calc/physics/iso-cone. This cone is a right circular solid.
Where does this run?
Locally in the browser by default. REST and MCP call the same solid-geometry engine.
