The circular base of a cylinder has a diameter of its height is 5cm. Taking PI to be 22/7 find its volume
What is the diameter?
Answers please. Please
To find the volume of a cylinder, we need to know the height and the radius (or diameter) of its base. In this case, we are given the diameter as 5 cm, which means the radius is half of the diameter, i.e., 5/2 cm.
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is given by V = π * r^2 * h, where V represents the volume, π represents the mathematical constant pi (approximately 3.14), r represents the radius, and h represents the height.
Given that the diameter is 5 cm, the radius is 5/2 cm. We can plug these values into the formula to find the volume:
V = π * (5/2)^2 * h
V = (22/7) * (25/4) * h (substituting π as 22/7 and simplifying the square of 5/2)
V = 550/28 * h (multiplying 22/7 by 25/4)
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is (550/28) * h cubic cm.
