Question

The radius of the cylinder is 2 in, and the height is 6 in. What is the volume of the cylinder?
You're trying to find the volume of the cylinder. We know the radius is 2 inches, and the height is 6 inches. So, we can start by substituting 2 for r and 6 for h in the formula. Do that now.

To calculate the volume of the cylinder, you can use the formula:

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

Given that the radius \( r = 2 \) inches and the height \( h = 6 \) inches, you can substitute these values into the formula:

\[
V = \pi (2)^2 (6)
\]

Calculating \( (2)^2 \):

\[
(2)^2 = 4
\]

Now substitute \( 4 \) back into the volume formula:

\[
V = \pi (4) (6)
\]

Now multiply \( 4 \) by \( 6 \):

\[
4 \times 6 = 24
\]

Thus, the volume formula becomes:

\[
V = 24\pi \text{ cubic inches}
\]

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is:

\[
V \approx 24 \times 3.14159 \approx 75.398 \text{ cubic inches}
\]

So the volume of the cylinder is \( 24\pi \) cubic inches or approximately \( 75.4 \) cubic inches when calculated numerically.
