The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.
We know that the radius is 17 inches and the volume is 231,402.3 cubic inches. We can plug these values into the formula and solve for h:
231,402.3 = 3.14(17^2)h
231,402.3 = 9089.74h
h = 231,402.3/9089.74
h ≈ 25.5 inches
Therefore, the height of each pillar is approximately 25.5 inches.
