This is a cylinder. When seen from the top or bottom it is a circle. From any side view (360°) it looks like a rectangle. There are special cases of other solids that appear like this but the cylinder is the most common. Traneengineer, Rocklin, CA
These principles are usually taught in a drafting class, but may be taught in advanced art as well. Orthographic views may be drawn out on a page to show top, front and side views of an isometric drawing that is also drawn on the page as well. This is a basic drafting design setup.
Let h be the height of the cylinder and r the radius of the circular top/bottom. If you cut the cylinder down one side and roll it out, you have a rectangle. The length of the side is h and the width would be 2pi*r (the perimeter of a circle). Therefore, the perimeter of a cylinder is 2pi*r + 2h
