Question

Solve for height

Can someone just give an example on how to solve for a height equation?? It can be an easy equation.

Answer 1

Volume of a cylinder = pi r^2 h where r = radius of the base and h = the height.

so if we are given a radius of 2 cm and a volume of 180 cm^3 we work out the height as follows:-

180 = pi * 2^2 * h

h = 180 / (pi*2^2)

height h = 180 / 4pi = 14.32 cm to nearest hundredth
