The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.
Given that the radius of the base is 3 feet and the volume is 250 cubic feet, we can plug in these values into the formula:
250 = π(3)^2h
250 = 9πh
h = 250 / (9π)
h ≈ 8.78 feet
Therefore, the height of the cylinder is approximately 8.78 feet.
A right cylinder with a base that had a radius of 3 feet is shown. Its volume is 250 cubic feet. Enter the height in feet of this cylinder
