What is the volume, in cubic feet, of a cylinder with a height of 20 feet and a base radius of 4 feet, to the nearest tenths place?
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula:
V = πr^2h
Where V is the volume, π is a constant approximately equal to 3.14159, r is the radius of the base, and h is the height of the cylinder.
Substituting in the given values:
V = 3.14159*(4 ft)^2*(20 ft) = 3.14159*16 ft^2*20 ft ≈ 1005.31 ft^3
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the volume is approximately 1005.3 cubic feet.
