| Volume | \(\displaystyle V= r_a·r_b · π · h\) |
|
Perimeter *) |
\(\displaystyle P ≈ π · (a+b) · \left( 1+ \frac{3 · λ^2}{10+\sqrt{4-3*λ^2}}\right) \)
\(\displaystyle λ = \frac{a - b ·}{a+b}\) |
| Base area | \(\displaystyle A= r_a ·r_b ·π\) |
| Lateral area | \(\displaystyle L=P·h\) |
|
Surface area |
\(\displaystyle S=2·A + L\) |
*) The scope is determined using an approximation formula by Ramanujan, which has a maximum error of 0.04%.
