Question

Radius 3 cm
Height 6 cm
Height 6 cm

Find the volume of the cylinder. Use 3.14 for pi.

226.08 cubic centimeters

678.24 cubic centimeters

169.56 cubic centimeters

399.12 cubic centimeters

Answer 1

To find the volume of a cylinder, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = \pi r^2 h
\]

Where:
- \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14,
- \( r \) is the radius,
- \( h \) is the height.

Given:
- Radius \( r = 3 \) cm,
- Height \( h = 6 \) cm.

Now, substituting the values into the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = 3.14 \times (3 \, \text{cm})^2 \times 6 \, \text{cm}
\]
\[
= 3.14 \times 9 \, \text{cm}^2 \times 6 \, \text{cm}
\]
\[
= 3.14 \times 54 \, \text{cm}^3
\]
\[
= 169.56 \, \text{cm}^3.
\]

Thus, the volume of the cylinder is **169.56 cubic centimeters**.
