Volume of the cylinder = πr²h

see explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

A cylinder comprises of two circles and a curved part.

To get the volume, we would multiply the area of the circle with the height of the cylinder

The height of the cylinder is the distance between the two circular ends

Area of a cirlce is pi multiplied by radius squared

Area of circle = π×r² = πr²

where r = radius

h = height of the cylinder

Volume of the cylinder becomes = πr² × h

Volume of the cylinder = πr²h
