Answer:
Option B) triple the height
Explanation:
The rest of the question is the container has a shape of the cylinder and the options to select the answer.
The options are:
A) triple the radius
B) triple the height
C) triple the diameter
D) triple the circumference
=========================================
the container has a shape of the cylinder
The volume of the cylinder is = π r² h
It is required to choose which option is suitable so change the dimensions so that the volume is tripled.
So, the volume will be V' = ( 3 π r² h )
Check the options:
A) triple the radius
The new radius = 3r
∴ V = π (3r)² h = 9 π r² h
B) triple the height
The new height = 3h
∴ V = π r² (3h) = 3 π r² h
So, it is no need to check the other options.
The answer is option B
Note: both of option C and D will lead to the same result of option A
