1. What is the formula to find the volume of a cylinder?
2. Find the volume of the cylinder:
3. Find the volume of a cylinder that is 8 across and 13 tall.
4.Find the volume. Round to the nearest tenth.
5. Why is it important to know how to find the height and the radius as you are applying these to the volume of a cylinder formula?
What common mistakes could you make?
1. The formula to find the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.
2. Given a cylinder with a radius of 4 cm and a height of 10 cm, the volume can be found using the formula V = π(4)^2(10) = 160π cm^3.
3. Given a cylinder with a diameter of 8 cm and a height of 13 cm, the radius would be 4 cm. Using the formula V = π(4)^2(13), the volume would be 208π cm^3.
4. Let's say the volume of a cylinder is 350π cm^3. Rounded to the nearest tenth, the volume would be 1101.4 cm^3.
5. It is important to know how to find the height and radius because without these measurements, you cannot accurately calculate the volume of a cylinder. Common mistakes include using the wrong units for the measurements, forgetting to square the radius when calculating the volume, or using the wrong formula altogether.
