How does the Frustum Calculator work?

Volume = (πh/3) × (R² + Rr + r²) where R = large base, r = small base, h = height Then: Lateral surface area = π(R + r) × √(h² + (R-r)²) Then: Total surface area = lateral + base areas.

Can you give an example of how to use the Frustum Calculator?

Example: Input R1=5, R2=3, h=4 gives a result of V=184π.

Is the Frustum Calculator free to use?

Yes — completely free with no registration, download, or subscription required. All calculations happen instantly in your browser.
