Question
Shelly knows the area of the base of a cylinder. What other information does she need to find its volume?(1 point)
Responses

the diameter of the base of the cylinder
the diameter of the base of the cylinder

the circumference of the base of the cylinder
the circumference of the base of the cylinder

the height of the cylinder
the height of the cylinder

the radius of the base of the cylinder
the radius of the base of the cylinder

Answer 1

To find the volume of a cylinder, Shelly needs to know the height of the cylinder. The formula for the volume \( V \) of a cylinder is given by:

\[
V = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]

Since she already knows the area of the base, she just needs the height to calculate the volume. Therefore, the correct response is:

**the height of the cylinder**.
