Answer:

The answer to your question is 5π in³

Explanation:

Data

radius = 1 in

height = 5 in

π = π

Process

1.- Write the formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder

Volume = π x radius² x height

2.- Substitution

Volume = π x (1)² x (5)

3.- Simplification

Volume = π x 1 x 5

4.- Result

Volume = 5π in³
