A cylinder has diameter 34 m and height 27 m. A label at bottom states drawing not to scale.

Find the volume of the cylinder. Use 3.14 for π.

1 answer

The volume of the cylinder can be calculated using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder.

Given that the diameter of the cylinder is 34 m, we can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2.

Radius, r = 34/2 = 17 m

Height, h = 27 m

π = 3.14

Now, substituting the values in the formula, we get:

V = πr^2h
V = 3.14 x 17^2 x 27
V = 3.14 x 289 x 27
V = 23,331.18 m^3

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 23,331.18 cubic meters.
