The program to calculate this information uses these formulas and data: base area = πr2.

volume = base area × height = πr2h.

surface area = 2 base areas + side area = 2πr2 + 2πrh.

Method:

1.Enter an r value into the calculator and save it for other calculations. Calculate the base area (πr2), store it for later use, and add the base area to a register which will hold the sum of all base areas.

2.Enter h and calculate the volume (πr2h). Add it to a register to hold the sum of all volumes.

3.Recall r. Divide the volume by r and multiply by 2 to yield the side area. Recall the base area, multiply by 2, and add to the side area to yield the surface areas. Sum the surface areas in a register.

Do not enter the actual data while writing the program – just provide for their entry. These values will vary and so will be entered before and/or during each program run.
