A local library has a number of pillars in the front entrance each pillar of the cylinder the radius of each pillar is 17 inches in the volume for each of the pillar is 231,402.3 cubic inches what is the height of each pillar?

Answer 1

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.

In this case, we know that the radius (r) is 17 inches and the volume (V) is 231,402.3 cubic inches. So we can rearrange the formula and solve for h:

h = V/(πr^2)

h = 231402.3/(π(17)^2)

h ≈ 254.2 inches

Therefore, the height of each pillar is approximately 254.2 inches.
