find the diagonal c in the cylinder

1 answer

To find the diagonal c in a cylinder, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

The formula for the diagonal c in a cylinder is:

c = √(h^2 + (2r)^2)

Where:
- h is the height of the cylinder
- r is the radius of the base of the cylinder

For example, if the height of the cylinder is 10 units and the radius is 3 units, the diagonal c would be:

c = √(10^2 + (2*3)^2)
c = √(100 + 36)
c = √136
c ≈ 11.66 units

Therefore, the diagonal c in the cylinder with a height of 10 units and a radius of 3 units is approximately 11.66 units.
