To find the volume of a cylinder, you 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,
  • \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14.

However, you did not provide the radius and the height of the cylinder. If you provide those dimensions, I can help you calculate the volume. Please share the values for the radius and the height.

The heigh of the cylinder is 15 cm, but its slanting towards the right and the radius is 5 cm

In the case of a cylinder, the slant does not affect the volume calculation as long as we consider it a right cylinder. The volume formula remains the same:

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

Given:

  • Height (h) = 15 cm
  • Radius (r) = 5 cm
  • Using \(\pi \approx 3.14\)

Now, we can calculate the volume:

  1. Calculate \( r^2 \): \[ r^2 = 5^2 = 25 \text{ cm}^2 \]

  2. Plug values into the volume formula: \[ V = 3.14 \times 25 \times 15 \]

  3. Calculate:

    • First, calculate \( 25 \times 15 \): \[ 25 \times 15 = 375 \]
    • Then, multiply by \( 3.14 \): \[ V = 3.14 \times 375 = 1177.5 \text{ cm}^3 \]

Thus, the volume of the cylinder is 1177.5 cubic centimeters.
