what is the height of a cylinder shown?
height 5cm
length 10cm
Apologies for the misunderstanding. The height of the cylinder shown is 5 cm.
The height of the cylinder shown is 5 cm.
no the length is 10 and the cylinder is 5 cm
To determine the height of a cylinder, you'll need to clarify what "length" refers to. The term "length" is typically used to describe the longest dimension of an object, which is not applicable to a cylinder. Instead, a cylinder has a height and a radius (or diameter) measurement.
If the 5cm measurement you provided corresponds to the height of the cylinder, then the height would be 5cm.
However, if the 10cm measurement you mentioned is the diameter of the cylinder, you can determine the height by subtracting the radius from the diameter. The radius is half the diameter, so in this case, the radius would be 10cm divided by 2, which equals 5cm. Subtracting the radius (5cm) from the diameter (10cm) leaves you with a height of 5cm.
In summary:
- If the provided 5cm measurement is the height, then the height is 5cm.
- If the 10cm measurement you mentioned is the diameter, then the height is 5cm.
