Frustum Volume Calculator

Geometry

Truncated cone volume, slant height and surface area

Quick Answer

Frustum Volume Calculator: Truncated cone volume, slant height and surface area. Volume: V = πh(R² + Rr + r²) / 3.

Enter any one value, the rest auto-solve
Diagram (updates live with input)
r = 5.00R = 8.00h = 6.00

Step-by-step

s = √(h² + (R − r)²) = √(6.0000² + 3.0000²) = 6.7082

V = πh(R² + Rr + r²)/3 = π × 6.0000 × 129.0000 / 3 = 810.5309

侧面积 = π(R + r)s = π × 13.0000 × 6.7082 = 273.9678

表面积 = 侧面积 + π(R² + r²) = 553.5695

Formula & How It Works

Frustum (truncated cone) math

Volume: V = πh(R² + Rr + r²) / 3
Slant height: l = √(h² + (R−r)²)
Lateral area: π(R + r)l; total adds πR² + πr²
r=0 degenerates to a cone: V = πR²h/3

Example: bucket R=15, r=10, h=30 cm → V = 4750π ≈ 14.92 L; l ≈ 30.4 cm; lateral ≈ 2388 cm².
