Find the perimeter of a cylinder

Given diameter and height, find the perimeter of a cylinder.
Perimeter is the length of the outline of a two - dimensional shape. A cylinder is a three - dimensional shape. So, technically we cannot find the perimeter of a cylinder but we can find the perimeter of the cross-section of the cylinder. This can be done by creating the projection on its base, thus, creating the projection on its side, then the shape would be reduced to a rectangle.

perimeter of a cylinder

Formula :
Perimeter of cylinder ( P ) = ( 2 * d ) + ( 2 * h )
here d is the diameter of the cylinder
h is the height of the cylinder
Examples :

Input : diameter = 5, height = 10 
Output : Perimeter = 30

Input : diameter = 50, height = 150 
Output : Perimeter = 400

C++

// CPP program to find 
// perimeter of cylinder
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

// Function to calculate perimeter
int perimeter(int diameter, int height)
{
    return 2 * (diameter + height);
}

// Driver function
int main()
{
    int diameter = 5;
    int height = 10;
    
    cout << "Perimeter = "; 
    cout<< perimeter(diameter, height);
    cout<<" units\n";
    
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java program to find 
// perimeter of cylinder
import java.io.*;

class GFG {

    // Function to calculate perimeter
    static int perimeter(int diameter, int height)
    {
        return 2 * (diameter + height);
    }
    
    /* Driver program to test above function */
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        int diameter = 5;
        int height = 10;
        System.out.println("Perimeter = " +
                         perimeter(diameter, height) 
                                       + " units\n");
    }
}

    // This code is contributed by susmitakundugoaldanga.
</script>

Output :

Perimeter = 30 units

Time Complexity: O(1)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
