Question

Part A Which measurements do you need to know to find the volume of a cylinder?

Answer 1

Recall that the volume of a cylinder is given by

`V=\pi\cdot r^2\cdot h`

Where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.

Also, we know that the radius is half of the diameter.

`r=(D)/(2)`

In the given figure,

Diameter is given that is 8 cm and the height is 2 cm

So, the radius of the cylinder would be 8/2 = 4 cm

Since the cylinder is half cut, the volume of the cylinder will be half (divide by 2)
