Truncated cone formulas

Top surface \(\displaystyle A_T= rs^2·π\)
Base surface \(\displaystyle A_B= rl^2·π\)
Lateral length \(\displaystyle L=\sqrt{(r_l-r_s)^2 + h^2}\)
Lateral surface \(\displaystyle S_L=π ·(r_l+r_s)·\sqrt{(r_l-r_s)^2+h^2}\)      \(\displaystyle =π ·(r_l+r_s)·L\)
Total surface \(\displaystyle S=S_L+π·(r_l^2+r_s^2)\)
Volume \(\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}·π·(r_l^2+(r_l·r_s) +r_s^2)·h\)
Large perimeter \(\displaystyle P_l= 2\cdot π \cdot r_l\)
Short perimeter \(\displaystyle P_s= 2\cdot π \cdot r_s\)
