Answer:

radius = 4 cm

Explanation:

To find the length of the radius, we will follow the step below;

First, write down the formula for finding the volume of a cylinder

v=πr²h

where v is the volume of a cylinder

r is the radius and

h is the height of the cylinder

from the question given,

v=125.6 and h = 10 cm

we can now proceed to insert the values into the formula and solve for r

note that π is a constant which is equal to 3.14

v=πr²h

125.6 =3.14×r×10

125.6 =31.4 r

Divide both-side of the equation by 31.4

125.6/31.4 =31.4 r/31.4

4 = r

r =4 cm

The length of the radius = 4 cm
