Spheres and cylinders are studied in geometry. In fact there is a geometry that just deals with spheres called spherical geometry. Imagine living on a sphere ( you almost do) compared to living on a plane. Some geometric postulates must be modified for this.
There is a geometry of living on the surface of a cylinder too.

Can you use pi in math other than in a circle?
Yes, you can also use pi with spheres and cylinders. :D
What is the equation for area in math?
The formula depends on what shape you're working with. Triangles, circles, parallelograms, squares, trapezoids, ellipses, hexagons, prisms, cones, spheres, cylinders, etc. all have different formulas for their areas.
How are cylinders and cones alike in math?
They have at least one circular base.
What do you do to figure out math problems?
You study.
Who created the math form of pi?
Not sure what you mean by "math form of pi". Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The same relation applies to spheres. Since spheres and circles existed before the first human being, the relationship also existed. Therefore, no human could have created pi.
