Answer:

Explanation:

Although a cylinder is technically not a prism, it shares many of the properties of a prism. Like prisms, the volume is found by multiplying the area of one end of the cylinder (base) by its height.

Since the end (base) of a cylinder is a circle, the area of that circle is given by the formula:

area = π r 2

Multiplying by the height h we get

volume = π r 2 h

where:

π is Pi, approximately 3.142

r is the radius of the circular end of the cylinder

h height of the cylinder
