Solved by pluggable solver: Surface area and Volume of a cylinder
The surface area (SA) of a cylinder, excluding the base area and top area, is given by


When the areas of base and top are included, the surface area becomes



The volume of the cone can be found by the formula



In our case the desired values are thus:

SA (without base and top) =
SA (with base and top) =
V =
