To calculate the volume of a cylinder, we use the formula:
V = πr^2h
Where:
V = volume
r = radius
h = height
Given that the diameter is 12ft, the radius would be half of that, so:
r = 12ft / 2 = 6ft
h = 12ft
Plugging in the values:
V = π(6ft)^2 * 12ft
V = π * 36ft^2 * 12ft
V = 432π ft^3
Now, we can calculate the volume:
V ≈ 1356.4 ft^3
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 1356.4 cubic feet.
A cylinder has a base diameter of 12ft and a height of 12ft. What is its volume in cubic ft, to the nearest tenths place?
