What is the volume of a cylinder, in cubic in, with a height of 11in and a base diameter of 4in? Round to the nearest tenths place
The volume of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.
Since the base diameter is 4 inches, the radius (r) is half of the diameter, which is 2 inches.
V = π(2)^2(11)
V = π(4)(11)
V = 44π
Approximating π to 3.14:
V ≈ 44(3.14)
V ≈ 138.16 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 138.2 cubic inches.
