a cylinder with a height of 8 and diameter of 5 units

Answer 1

When rectangle ABCD is rotated about side AB, the line segment AB remains fixed while the points C and D sweep out a circle as they rotate.

- The height of the cylinder formed corresponds to the length of side AB, which is 8 units.
- The diameter of the cylinder corresponds to the length of side AD, which is 5 units.

Thus, the three-dimensional object formed is:

**a cylinder with a height of 8 and diameter of 5 units.**
