If you haven't already cooked the cake, before you put the batter in the pan, cut 2 circles from either waxed paper or parchment paper to fit the bottom of the pan.
My mom taught me many years ago the easiest way to get the size of the paper right (I usually used waxed paper). If it is a two layer cake, tear off enough waxed paper to have room for two circles. Fold in half. Turn one of the cake pans upside down. Lay the paper on top of the upside down pan. While holding the paper steady, use the cutting edge of a pair of scissors, and gently scrape around the edge of the pan all the way around. Then with the paper still folded, cut the "traced" circles from the paper. Turn the pan back over and put the paper in the bottom of the pan. Then pour in the batter. cook as usual. After the cake is removed from the oven and cooled for a few minutes, invert the pans to remove the cake. Let the cake continue to cool. After cool and before frosting the cake, gently remove the paper from the cake and discard. Perfect everytime.

Before you pour in the batter, grease the pan and dust with flour or spray on Baker's Joy (with the flour in it). After baking the cake, allow it to cool for about 30 minutes. Run a knife around the perimeter of the pan to make sure that the cake is separated from the pan. Place a plate (upside down) over the cake pan and then invert the whole thing. Tap lightly, and the cake should come loose (let gravity work for you here). Good luck.

Buy a springform cake pan, they have bottoms that drop out so it is easier to remove the cake. You still have to coat the inside of the pan with some form of grease so it doesn't stick to the sides or the bottom though.
Example below.

Run a knife around the edge of the cake pan, put your cooling wrack over the top and flip the pan and rack over. The cake should just plop onto the cooling rack, especially if you've greased your pan.

Next time spray the pan well with Pam for Baking spray (it has oil and flour mixed together in the can) and put a parchment paper circle on the bottom of the cake pan and spray that too.

the best and easiest way is by using the butter paper, on the bottom of the cake pan without greasing it with oil or butter or anything else, and fold the butter paper edges on the outter surface of the pan, let the cake cool alittle bit after baking it and just grab the butter paper up! loool
have a good day

You can put the cake back in the oven for a few minutes to heat it up and that should loosen it up.
Next time use pam or grease and flour the pan before putting in the cake mix.

Use springform pan. This is the one that has a "buckle" on it, so you can loosen up the sides of the pan to get the cake out of the pan.

I've heard that you can stick the cake back in the oven for just a minute or two and then try to get it out again.

Take a small knife and run it along the inside edge of the pan, and kind of jiggle it out.
