To determine the area of a cylindrical box, you need to calculate the sum of the areas of its curved surface and its two circular bases. The formula for the curved surface area is given by 2πrh, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the box. The formula for the area of the circular base is πr^2. Add the two areas together to get the total surface area of the cylindrical box.

The area of a three dementional figure is divided into lateral surface area and total surface area.

The total surface area of a cylindrical box can be calculated by using the formula : 2 times pi times radius squared plus 2 times pi times radius times hight

The lateral surface area can be calculated by the formula: 2 times pi times radius times height

How do you find the cubic inches in a box that is not square?

If it is a rectangular box, then volume = length*breadth*height, where each is measured in inches. If it is a cylindrical box, then pi*radius2*height, where the radius and height are measured in inches.


Would a spherical protist or a cylindrical protist have a higher surface area to volume ratio?

A cylindrical protist has a higher surface are to volume ratio. This is because of the physical properties of spheres (some rather complicated math proves that spheres hold the most volume for their area).
