The formula for volume of a CYLINDER is V=(area of the base) x (height of prism) USE 3.14 for π and DO NOT ROUND! (3 points) Part 1: Find the area of the CIRCLE BASE of the CYLINDER: Area = yd2 Part 2: What is the height of the cylinder? yd Part 3: Find the volume of the cylinder using V=(area of the base) x (height of prism) = yd3
(the cylinder is 11yds 15yds)
Part 1: The area of the circle base of the cylinder is calculated using the formula for the area of a circle, which is A=πr^2. Since the radius of the base is half of the diameter, the radius is 11/2 = 5.5 yards.
Area = π(5.5)^2
Area = 3.14 x 30.25
Area = 94.985 square yards
Part 2: The height of the cylinder is 15 yards.
Part 3: Now we can find the volume of the cylinder using the formula V = (area of the base) x (height of prism).
V = 94.985 x 15
V = 1,424.775 cubic yards
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 1,424.775 cubic yards.
