It depends on the shape. If it is a sphere or an ellipsoid it is relatively easy. If it is a more exotic shape, you have some serious integration to carry out. It is not clear from the question which of these problems you are trying to solve.

How do you calculate the surface-area-to-volume-ratio?
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
On what part of a cylinder would you find the soup can label?
The label is placed on the curved surface area of the cylinder. Its area can be found using the formula A = 3.14dh where d is the diameter and h is the height of the can. It is rectangular in shape.
How do you find the surface area of a capsule?
Shape of capsule: A circular cylinder with hemispheres mounted on both sides. Radius of each hemisphere is equal to the radius of cylinder. Let the length of the cylinder be h. Surface area of capsule = Curved surface area of cylinder + Curved Surface area of two hemispheres Surface area of capsule = 2 x pi x r x h + 2 x 2 x pi x r x r = 2 x pi x r x (h+2r)
How do you find the curved surface area of cone?
Suppose you have a cone with slant height='l' and base radius 'r' and perpendicular height 'h' Curved surface area of COne=pi*r*l =pi*r*(squareroot(r2+h2))
Is the total surface area same as the surface area?
Unless the context suggests otherwise, the two are the same. However, you may, for example, be required to find the curved surface area of a cylinder and [then] the total surface area. In that case the total surface area would include the areas of the two end faces.
How do you find the height of a cylinder if the area of the curved surface and the radius is given?
2(pi)(r)(h)=the area of the curved surface
How do you find the curved surface area of sphere?
Surface area of a sphere = 4*pi*radius2
How do you calculate the surface-area-to-volume-ratio?
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.

The label is placed on the curved surface area of the cylinder. Its area can be found using the formula A = 3.14dh where d is the diameter and h is the height of the can. It is rectangular in shape.
How could you calculate the surface area of a shape?
To calculate the surface area of a shape find the area of each side, and then, add all of the areas together. The sum of the areas is the surface area.
How do you find the curved surface area of a cylinder?
1. Find the surface area of the whole cylinder 2. Find the area of one of the two circles on either end of the cylinder 3. Multiply the circle's area by two and subtract their area from the total surface area 4. Now you have the surface area of an unclosed cylinder!
What is the answer to this question when the curved surface area of a cone is 814sqcm total surface area is 1584sqcm find the volume of the cone?
Use a calculator and you'll get yurh answer
How do you find the surface area of a three dimensional figure?
You find the surface area of each individual face - whether plane or curved - and then sum all those areas together.
How do you find the surface area for the following net?
The surface area for a solid shape formed from a net is the same as the area of the net.
A cone of height 24cm has a curved surface area of 550cm sq find it's volume?
Curved surface area = pi*radius*slant length Voume in cubic cm = 1/3*pi*radius2*height
How do you find the surface area of ANY 3D solid?
The surface area of a polyhedron can be calculated by first calculating the area of each of its polygonal surfaces and adding these together.The surface area of some curved solids (sphere, cylinder, cone) can be calculated from formula but for most curved solids are more complicated and require integration.
How do you find the surface area of a capsule?
Shape of capsule: A circular cylinder with hemispheres mounted on both sides. Radius of each hemisphere is equal to the radius of cylinder. Let the length of the cylinder be h. Surface area of capsule = Curved surface area of cylinder + Curved Surface area of two hemispheres Surface area of capsule = 2 x pi x r x h + 2 x 2 x pi x r x r = 2 x pi x r x (h+2r)
