Question

A storage container for oil is in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter of 10 feet and a height of 17 feet. Which measurement is closest to the volume of the storage container in cubic feet?

Answer 1

Explanation:

use Area=pi *
`r^(2)`

diameter is 2 * r

so r = 5

pi *
`5^(2)` = 78.5398

Area * height = volume

78.5398 * 17 = 1335.18

the cylinder holds about 1335
`ft^(3)`
