Answer:

1024 pi

Explanation:

The area formula is ...

A = πr^2

So, the radius is ...

r = √(A/π)

For the given area, the radius of the cylinder is ...

r = √(64π/π) = 8 . . . . cm

The height is said to be twice this value, so is 16 cm.

__

The volume of the cylinder is found from ...

V = Bh

where B is the base area and h is the height. Our cylinder has a volume of ...

V = (64π cm^2)(16 cm) = 1024π cm^3
