Answer:

100π

Explanation:

Before we even begin solving for the volume we should note that the question says to find the volume of the cylinder " in terms of pi". this means that if pi is present we do not apply it to our final answer and we just leave our answer as __pi

Having that being cleared let's find the volume

volume of a cylinder = πr²h

where r = radius and h = height

looking at the figure the cylinder has a known radius of 5in and a given height of 4in

so r = 5 and h = 4

that being said we want to plug in these given variables into the volume of a cylinder formula

V = πr²h

r = 5 and h = 4

V = π5²4

5²=25

25(4)=100

V = 100π

once again we must leave our answer in terms of pi so the final answer would be 100π
