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

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

where:

  • \( V \) is the volume,
  • \( r \) is the radius of the base,
  • \( h \) is the height of the cylinder.

Given:

  • Radius \( r = 8 \) mm,
  • Height \( h = 13 \) mm.

Now, substituting the values into the formula:

\[ V = \pi (8)^2 (13) \]

Calculating \( (8)^2 \):

\[ (8)^2 = 64 \]

Now substitute back into the formula:

\[ V = \pi \cdot 64 \cdot 13 \] \[ V = 832\pi \]

Now, using the approximation \( \pi \approx 3.14159 \):

\[ V \approx 832 \times 3.14159 \approx 2617.76 \]

Finally, rounding to the nearest hundredth:

\[ V \approx 2617.76 \text{ cubic millimeters} \]

Thus, the volume of the cylinder is approximately:

\[ \boxed{2617.76} \text{ cubic millimeters} \]
