@Spicytaco1 If you can remember the area of a circle then you can remember the volume of a cyclinder. Area of a circle is a flat 2-dimensional plane so it's only 1 slab... Think of it as 1 pancake (1 really thing pancake). A cyclinder is many of those pancakes stacked together (h, height, pancakes).
