The formula for the area of a cylinder is

×h
First, we do not have to worry about pi because we are leaving our answer in terms of it so we can move on to the radius squared.
The radius is halfway across a circle so our radius would be 4 and we have to square that and we will get a product of 16.
Lastly, we have to multiply 16 by 8 because 8 is the height of the cylinder
16 × 8 = 128
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder would be 128
