Answer:

Volume of cylinder = 12,560 feet³

Explanation:

Given:

Height of cylinder = 40 ft

Radius of cylinder = 10 ft

Find:

Can its volume be 10 ft ?

Computation:

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

Volume of cylinder = (22/7)(10)²(40)

Volume of cylinder = (3.14)(10)²(40)

Volume of cylinder = (3.14)(100)(40)

Volume of cylinder = 12,560 feet³

Volume of this cylinder never be 10 feet
