Question

Write a sentence for the formula. Then interpret the equation in the context of the situation.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V=
`\pi r^(2) h`h, where V is the volume, r is the length of the radius of the base, and h is the height of the cylinder.

Answer 1

Answer: The volume for a cylinder is pi times radius squared multiplied by height. If the radius for the base of a cylinder is 2 inches, and its height is 8 inches, we square our radius 2 and get 4. Then we multiply this by pi which would be 3.14, to get 12.56. Then we multiply the product by height (8), 12.56 times 8, is 100.48 inches which is the volume of the cylinder.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder is:

`\boldsymbol{\sf{V=\pi r^(2)h }}`, where

• V = Volume
• R = radius
• H = Height
• π = P

The cylinder has radius and height.

To calculate the volume, we substitute the data in the formula, which are the radius and the height.

First calculate the radius squared. Then the value of PI is multiplied, which the value is 3.14 by the radius in cm^2 by the height. And in this way the volume of the cylinder will be calculated.
