Formulas for a Cylindrical-Segment

Segment width

\(\displaystyle s = 2 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot r \cdot h - h^2} \)

Arc length

\(\displaystyle b= r \cdot 2 \cdot acos \left(\frac{1 - h}{r}\right) \)

Lateral area

\(\displaystyle L = l \cdot b \)

Side area

\(\displaystyle S = \frac{r \cdot b}{2} - \frac{s \cdot (r - h)}{2} \)

Surface

\(\displaystyle A = L + s \cdot l + 2 \cdot S \)

Volume

\(\displaystyle A = S \cdot l\)
