Question

A cylinder has a diameter of 10cm. The height of the cylinder is 2 5 the length of the diameter. Calculate the volume of the cylinder in terms of π.

Answer 1

625 π cm^3

Explanation:

volume of a cylinder = πr^2h

π = 22/7

r = radius = 10/2 = 5cm

the diameter is the straight line that passes through the centre of a circle and touches the two edges of the circle.

A radius is half of the diameter

π x (5^2) x 25 = 625 π
