Find the volume of a cylinder that is 8’across and 13 tall
To find the volume of a cylinder, you can use the formula:
Volume = πr^2h
where r is the radius of the base of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder.
Since the diameter of the cylinder is given as 8 feet, the radius would be half of that:
radius = 8/2 = 4 feet
The height of the cylinder is given as 13 feet.
Now, we can plug these values into the formula:
Volume = π(4)^2(13)
Volume = π(16)(13)
Volume = 208π cubic feet
Using an approximate value of π as 3.14, the volume would be:
Volume ≈ 208(3.14) ≈ 652.48 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 652.48 cubic feet.
