In geometry, a frustum (plural: frusta or frustums) is the portion of a solid (normally a cone or pyramid) that lies between two parallel planes cutting it. A right frustum is a parallel truncation of a right pyramid.

The term is commonly used in computer graphics to describe the three-dimensional region which is visible on the screen, the "viewing frustum", which is formed by a clipped pyramid; in particular, frustum culling is a method of hidden surface determination.

In the aerospace industry, frustum is the common term for the fairing between two stages of a multistage rocket (such as the Saturn V), which is shaped like a truncated cone. It also applies to the essential drive element of the so-far unproven Emdrive.

Elements, special cases, and related concepts

Square frustum

A regular octahedron can be augmented on 3 faces to create a triangular frustum

Each plane section is a floor or base of the frustum. Its axis if any, is that of the original cone or pyramid. A frustum is circular if it has circular bases; it is right if the axis is perpendicular to both bases, and oblique otherwise.

The height of a frustum is the perpendicular distance between the planes of the two bases.

Cones and pyramids can be viewed as degenerate cases of frusta, where one of the cutting planes passes through the apex (so that the corresponding base reduces to a point). The pyramidal frusta are a subclass of the prismatoids.

Two frusta joined at their bases make a bifrustum.

Formulas

Volume

The volume formula of frustum of square pyramid was introduced by the ancient Egyptian mathematics in what is called the Moscow Mathematical Papyrus, written ca. 1850 BC.:

where a and b are the base and top side lengths of the truncated pyramid, and h is the height. The Egyptians knew the correct formula for obtaining the volume of a truncated square pyramid, but no proof of this equation is given in the Moscow papyrus.

The volume of a conical or pyramidal frustum is the volume of the solid before slicing the apex off, minus the volume of the apex:

where B₁ is the area of one base, B₂ is the area of the other base, and h₁, h₂ are the perpendicular heights from the apex to the planes of the two bases.

Considering that

the formula for the volume can be expressed as a product of this proportionality α/3 and a difference of cubes of heights h₁ and h₂ only.

By factorising the difference of two cubes ( a³ - b³ = (a-b)(a² + ab + b²) ) we get h₁−h₂ = h, the height of the frustum, and α(h₁² + h₁h₂ + h₂²)/3.

Distributing α and substituting from its definition, the Heronian mean of areas B₁ and B₂ is obtained. The alternative formula is therefore

Heron of Alexandria is noted for deriving this formula and with it encountering the imaginary number, the square root of negative one.

In particular, the volume of a circular cone frustum is

where π is 3.14159265..., and R₁, R₂ are the radii of the two bases.

The volume of a pyramidal frustum whose bases are n-sided regular polygons is

where a₁ and a₂ are the sides of the two bases.

Surface area

For a right circular conical frustum

$\begin{align}\text{Lateral Surface Area}&=\pi(R_1+R_2)s\\ &=\pi(R_1+R_2)\sqrt{(R_1-R_2)^2+h^2}\end{align}$

and

$\begin{align}\text{Total Surface Area}&=\pi((R_1+R_2)s+R_1^2+R_2^2)\\ &=\pi((R_1+R_2)\sqrt{(R_1-R_2)^2+h^2}+R_1^2+R_2^2)\end{align}$

where R₁ and R₂ are the base and top radii respectively, and s is the slant height of the frustum.

The surface area of a right frustum whose bases are similar regular n-sided polygons is

where a₁ and a₂ are the sides of the two bases.

Examples

• On the back (the reverse) of a United States one-dollar bill, a pyramidal frustum appears on the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States, surmounted by the Eye of Providence.
• Certain ancient Native American mounds also form the frustum of a pyramid.
• Chinese pyramids.
• The John Hancock Center in Chicago, Illinois is a frustum whose bases are rectangles.
• The Washington Monument is a narrow square-based pyramidal frustum topped by a small pyramid.
• The viewing frustum in 3D computer graphics is a virtual photographic or video camera's usable field of view modeled as a pyramidal frustum.
• In the English translation of Stanislaw Lem's short-story collection The Cyberiad, the poem Love and tensor algebra claims that "every frustum longs to be a cone".
• Buckets and typical lampshades are everyday examples of conical frustums.

Notes

1.^ The term "frustum" comes from Latin frustum meaning "piece" or "crumb". The English word is often misspelled as frustrum, a different Latin word cognate to the English word "frustrate". The confusion between these two words is very old: a warning about them can be found in the Appendix Probi, and the works of Plautus include a pun on them.
