A cylinder has a radius of 10 m and a height of 8 m. What is the exact volume of the cylinder? 18π m³ 80π m³ 160π m³ 800π m³
@Hero
@Allison the same formula and steps apply with this one. You start with \(V_c = \pi r^2 h\), input the given values for radius(r) and height(h), then solve for \(V_c\)
I'd like to see you try this one on your own. Post all your steps here please.
3.14 * 10 * 2 * 8
Avoid using 3.14 in this instance. Use π instead.
Divided by 3.14 is 160
Who told you to divide anything by 3.14? Do you see division symbols in the formula?
Triston ._.
\(V_c = \pi r^2 h = \pi \times r^2 \times h\)
I did that.
By the way, \(r^2\) means \(r \times r\) not \(r \times 2\)
I KNOW.
@Allison, okay but I observe you posted something in the same format as \(r \times 2\) earlier.
I got 502.
How did you get that? Show me your steps? Remember, you must use \(\pi\) in place of 3.14.
3.14 * 10 * 2 * 8
The final result will have \(\pi\) in it.
You should have \(V_c = \pi \times 10 \times 10 \times 8\)
2512 now
As I said before \(r^2 = r \times r\) not \(r \times 2\). There's something wrong with your calculator. Do not input \(\pi\) when calculating. Just calculate the \(10 \times 10 \times 8\)
180
@Allison, what's \(10 \times 10\). Everyone should know how to calculate that WITHOUT a calculator.
100!!!!
Okay, great, now what's \(100 \times 8\)
800.
Bingo. Now all you have to do is add the \(\pi\) on the end and remember that the units are cubic.
