We can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder:

V = πr^2h

Since we don't know the radius, we can rearrange the formula to solve for h:

h = V/(πr^2)

But we don't need to solve for the radius, because we already know the volume and the height. We just need to plug in the values:

239 = πr^2(6)

Simplifying the equation:

239 = 18πr^2

r^2 = 239/(18π)

r^2 ≈ 2.118

r ≈ 1.455

Now we can use the formula for h:

h = V/(πr^2)

h = 239/(π(1.455)^2)

h ≈ 34.14

So the height of the cylinder is approximately 34.14 centimeters.
