One of the equations for calculating the volume of a cylinder is V=Bh, where B
represents the area of the base of the cylinder and h
represents the height of the cylinder. Which expression can be used to find the value of B
for this cylinder, measured in square inches?
To find the value of B, you need to find the area of the base of the cylinder, which is a circle. The formula for finding the area of a circle is A=πr^2, where A is the area and r is the radius. Since the base of the cylinder is a circle, the radius of the base is the same as the radius of the cylinder.
Therefore, the expression to find the value of B in square inches is B = πr^2.
