Question

volume of a cylinder with radius 12 and height of 50

Answers

The volume \( V \) of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula:

\[
V = \pi r^2 h
\]

where:
- \( r \) is the radius,
- \( h \) is the height, and
- \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14159.

For a cylinder with a radius of 12 and a height of 50:

\[
V = \pi (12)^2 (50)
\]

Calculating \( (12)^2 \):

\[
(12)^2 = 144
\]

Now substitute this back into the volume formula:

\[
V = \pi (144)(50)
\]
\[
V = \pi (7200)
\]

Finally, using \( \pi \approx 3.14159 \):

\[
V \approx 3.14159 \times 7200 \approx 22619.47
\]

So, the volume of the cylinder is approximately \( 22619.47 \) cubic units.
