The volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 6 inches and a height that is three times the radius.Use 3.14 for pi and round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Respuesta :

Volume of a Cylinder

Volume of the cylinder is 28.26 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Cylinder is defined as a three dimensional geometric figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section.

The volume of the cylinder is defined as  [tex]\\\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

where r is radius of the base of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder

V =  [tex]\\\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

Given diameter  d = 6 in

So the radius r = [tex]\frac{d}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{2}[/tex]  = 3 in

Given the height is three times the radius

so the height h = [tex]\frac{r}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex] = 1 in

so h = 1 in

V =  3.14 × 3² ×  1

=  3.14 × 9

= 28.26 in³

Hence the Volume of the cylinder is 28.26 in³
