Is there a formula I can use to find the radius of this cylinder? [Pic related] http://prntscr.com/2x2thr

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Radius in what way? The base would be 6.5 units

OpenStudy (compassionate):

Maybe this is apparent and I am missing it. The radius; as in relation to the diameter.

OpenStudy (isaiah.feynman):

Radius is the diameter of the cylinder divided by 2. In your case |dw:1393728770268:dw|

@Compassionate can u help me plz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sabrinacool It's just half of the diameter. However a 3-D object has multiple diameters, since diameter is related to 2-D geometry.

OpenStudy (compassionate):

So, 6.5. Oh, I see. Yup. \[ \begin{array}l\color{red}{\text{E}}\color{red}{\text{V}}\color{red}{\text{E}}\color{red}{\text{R}}\color{red}{\text{Y}}\color{red}{\text{O}}\color{red}{\text{N}}\color{red}{\text{E}}\color{red}{\text{!}}\color{red}{\text{ }}\color{red}{\text{}}\end{array} \] It's okay! I'm just being an idiot :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ahahahahahaha. Silly.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

there is an assumption that the diameter of the top part of the cylinder is the same as the base

OpenStudy (compassionate):

Here at OpenStudy, we're famous for pretentious assumptions (;
