A 3 D cylinder shows a base radius of 3 centimeters and perpendicular height of 5 centimeters. A right angle is formed at the center of the base.


Find the volume of the cylinder, in cubic centimeters. Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

1 answer

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula:

V = π * r^2 * h

Where V is the volume, π is approximately 3.14, r is the base radius, and h is the perpendicular height.

In this case, the base radius is 3 centimeters and the perpendicular height is 5 centimeters.

Plugging these values into the formula:

V = 3.14 * (3^2) * 5
= 3.14 * 9 * 5
= 141.3 cubic centimeters

So, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 141.3 cubic centimeters.
