The given below is the Minimizing surface area of a cylinder formula to calculate the minimum surface area of cylinder. You can find the minimum surface area of a closed cylinder by knowing the radius and height. To calculate it, add the radius and height, then multiply the 2π with the radius value. Multiply the obtained value with the step 1 value to get the resultant value. It is calculated by adding the surface area of each end with the surface area of the side.
