What is the volume of a cylinder with a base radius of 12 mm and

a height of 50 mm? (1 point)

1 answer

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

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

where \( r \) is the radius of the base and \( h \) is the height of the cylinder.

Given:

  • \( r = 12 \) mm
  • \( h = 50 \) mm

Now, substituting the values into the formula:

\[ V = \pi (12 , \text{mm})^2 (50 , \text{mm}) \] \[ V = \pi (144 , \text{mm}^2) (50 , \text{mm}) \] \[ V = \pi (7200 , \text{mm}^3) \] \[ V \approx 3.14 \times 7200 , \text{mm}^3 \] \[ V \approx 22608 , \text{mm}^3 \]

Thus, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 22608 mm³.
