How to find the type of symmetric cipher that was encrypted. I have ciphertext, plaintext, key.
there is a command in openssl?

No, OpenSSL is a cryptographic API and TLS implementation with command line interface. It doesn't do crypt-analysis or algorithm detection.
You can try algorithms, probably starting with the most used ones. The size of the plaintext, ciphertext and key may also give hints - keysize and blocksize could point to specific ciphers for instance.
I'm not sure if there are open source or commercial analysis tools out there. You could ask the NSA, I would be hugely surprised if they would not have such a tool.
There is a list mentioned on ReverseEngineering but to me it doesn't give me much hope of finding an actual result.
