What is the volume of the following cylinder? Do not round your answer. (Use 3.14 for π.) volume =

Do you know what the equation to figure out the volume of a cylinder is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes V=PI * R^2H

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, now we just need to plug in what we know into this equation. Just so I'm clear though, is 12 yds the circumference of the circle, or the diameter of the circle? |dw:1405450786010:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wouldnt the radius be 6 then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, if the diameter is 12 , then the radius is half of that. So how that we know the radius and height, and that pi = 3.14, let's put these numbers into the equation you gave me (V = pi*r^2h)
