Use 3.14 as pi. Use the formula V= pi x radius squared x height.

A cylinder has a volume of 239 cubic centimetres and a height of 6 centimeters. what is the Height?

1 answer

We know the formula for the volume of a cylinder is V= pi x radius squared x height. We also know that the volume of this cylinder is 239 cubic centimeters and the height is 6 centimeters.

So, we can rewrite the formula as:

239 = 3.14 x radius squared x 6

Simplifying this equation, we get:

39.83 = radius squared

Taking the square root of both sides, we get:

6.31 = radius

Therefore, the height of the cylinder is:

V = pi x r^2 x h
239 = 3.14 x 6.31^2 x h
239 = 3.14 x 39.89 x h
239 = 125.42 x h
h = 239/125.42
h = 1.9

Therefore, the height of the cylinder is approximately 1.9 centimeters.
