the radius of the base of the metallic rod is 2o centimeters and height 15 centimeters what is the volume of a cylinder

To calculate the volume of a cylinder, you can use the formula:

Volume = π * (radius^2) * height

In this case, the radius of the base of the metallic rod is 20 centimeters and the height is 15 centimeters.

First, we need to square the radius:
radius^2 = 20^2 = 400

Now, we can substitute the values into the formula:
Volume = π * 400 * 15

The value of π is approximately 3.14159:
Volume = 3.14159 * 400 * 15

Now, we can calculate the volume:
Volume = 3.14159 * 400 * 15 = 18849.559 cubic centimeters

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 18849.559 cubic centimeters.
