Area & Volume Calculator

Area, perimeter, surface area and volume for common 2D and 3D shapes.

Formula

circle A = πr²  ·  cylinder V = πr²h  ·  sphere V = 4/3 πr³

Tips

  • Units are whatever you put in. Enter metres and area comes out in square metres, volume in cubic metres.
  • Only the inputs relevant to the chosen shape are used — a circle ignores width and depth.
  • For a triangle the second input is the perpendicular height, not the slanted side length.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get litres from a volume?

Work in centimetres and divide the cubic centimetres by 1,000, or work in metres and multiply the cubic metres by 1,000. The volume converter handles it either way.
