The equation to solve for the volume is Volume = π × radius² × height and the volume of the circular swimming pool is 1125π ft³.

The volume of a cylinder is expressed as:

Volume = π × radius² × height

Given the parameter;

The circular swimming pool has a diameter of 30 feet and a depth of 5 feet.

The circular swimming pool takes the shape of a cylinder.

To determine the volume, we find the volume of the cylinder.

Plug the radius = 30/2 = 15ft and the height = 5ft into the the above formula:

Volume = π × radius² × height

Volume = π × 15² × 5

Volume = π × 225 × 5

Volume = 1125π ft³

Therefore, the volume of the swimming pool is 1125π cubic feet.
