Right circular cylinder

Cylinder whose generatrices are perpendicular to the bases

A right circular cylinder is a cylinder whose generatrices are perpendicular to the bases. Thus, in a right circular cylinder, the generatrix and the height have the same measurements. It is also less often called a cylinder of revolution, because it can be obtained by rotating a rectangle of sides and around one of its sides. Fixing as the side on which the revolution takes place, we obtain that the side , perpendicular to , will be the measure of the radius of the cylinder.
