Use 3.14 as pi. Use the formula V= pi x radius squared x height. Round to nearest tenth of a unit.

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

1 answer

We can rearrange the formula V= pi x radius squared x height to solve for radius:

radius squared = V / (pi x height)
radius squared = 239 / (3.14 x 6)
radius squared = 12.074
radius ≈ √12.074
radius ≈ 3.5 (rounded to nearest tenth)

Therefore, the radius of the cylinder is approximately 3.5 centimeters.
