How do you find the volume of a cylinder?

Find the area of the base, using the formula A = pi*r^2, where r is the radius.

Then multiply this base area by the height.

Units of measurement could be ft^3, in^3, cm^3, and so on, all cubed.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = PI x r^2 x H

This means you need to find the radius of the cylinder ans raise it to the power of 2, then multiply that by the height of the cylinder, then multiply that by PI.
