Answer:

169.56 ft.^2

Explanation:

alright to find the volume you need to find the area of the base and multiply that by the height.

step one, area of the base.

since the base is a circle, to find the area you need to square the base then multiply by pi.

4 * 4 * pi = 16pi

step 2,, not sure what to call this lol

16pi * 9 = 54pi

step 3, I really shouldn't have given my steps titles

pi = 3.14, so 54pi = 54*3.14

54*3.14 = 169.56

finally, square the unit because volume is 3-d

169.56 ft.^2
