The answer depends on where a plane cuts through the cylinder. It could be a circle, ellipse, rectangle or square.

Not sure what the projection on a plane at an angle to the length of the cylinder would be. A parabola?

Plus there are other section where the

2d images for measuring cylinder?

To calculate the volume of a liquid in a measuring cylinder from a 2D image, you would need to know the dimensions of the cylinder and use the height of the liquid to estimate the volume by multiplying the cross-sectional area of the cylinder by the height of the liquid. Another way could be to use image analysis software to analyze the image and estimate the volume based on known parameters.
