Torus-Geometry Formulas

 

Torus

A 3D shape made by revolving a small circle (radius r) along a line made by a bigger circle (radius R).

Property:

  1. It can be made by revolving a small circle (radius r) along a line made by a bigger circle (radius R).
  2. It is not a polyhedron
  3. It has no vertices or edges

Surface Area:

Surface Area = 4 × π2 × R × r

Example:

Find the surface area of torus whose r = 3 and R = 7

Solution:

Surface Area = 4 × π2 × R × r

= 4 × π2 × 7 × 3

= 4 × π2 × 21

= 84 × π2

≈ 829

Volume:

Volume= = 2 × π2 × R × r2

Example:

Find the Volume of torus whose, r = 3 and R = 7

Solution:

Volume= 2 × π2 × R × r2

= 2 × π2 × 7 × 32

= 2 × π2 × 7 × 9

= 126 π2

≈ 1244
