Find the depth of a pond if its radius is 1.5m and the amount of water it can hold it can hold is 755.6

1 answer

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

V = πr^2h

where V is the volume of the cylinder (in this case, the amount of water the pond can hold), r is the radius of the cylinder (in this case, 1.5m), and h is the height or depth of the cylinder (what we are trying to find).

Plugging in the values we have:

755.6 = π (1.5)^2 h

Solving for h:

h = 755.6 / π (1.5)^2

h ~ 105.6

Therefore, the depth of the pond is approximately 105.6 meters.
