  • Radius=12/2=6ft=r
  • Height=h=14ft

Volume:-


\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \pi (6)^2(14)


\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \pi 252(2)


\\ \rm\rightarrowtail 504\pi


\\ \rm\rightarrowtail 1582.56ft^3

Solution:

First, let's find the radius with the given diameter.

⇒ Diameter = 2(Radius)

⇒ 12 ft = 2(Radius)

⇒ 6 ft = Radius

The area of the cylinder is basically the area of a circle in the cylinder multiplied by the height of the cylinder. This means that the volume of the cylinder is πr²h. Now, let's find the volume of the cylinder.

⇒ πr²h = Volume of cylinder

⇒ (3.14)(6²)(14) = Volume of cylinder

⇒ (3.14)(36)(14) = Volume of cylinder

1582.56 ft³ = Volume of cylinder
