Question

The volume of a cylinder is 4,019.2 cubic units. If the radius is 8 units, how tall is the cylinder?

Answer 1

We will be using the formula in looking for the volume of the cylinder which is

V = πr²h

where:

r = radius
h = height
V = volume

but in the problem V and r have values already:
r = 8
V = 4019.2

plug this in the volume equation:

V = πr²h
= 4019.2 = π* 8² * h
= 4019.2 = 64πh
= 4019.2 / 64π = h

so the answer is: h = 4019.2 /201.06193
= 19.99 is the height of the cylinder.
