Math Problem Statement
V=\pi r^{2}h
Solution
The formula you've provided is the volume of a cylinder:
Where:
- is the volume of the cylinder,
- is the radius of the base of the cylinder,
- is the height of the cylinder,
- (Pi) is approximately 3.14159.
How It Works:
- The area of the circular base is , and multiplying it by the height gives the volume of the cylinder.
Would you like to see an example, or do you have any questions about this formula?
Here are 5 related questions:
- What is the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and a height of 5 cm?
- How does changing the radius affect the volume of the cylinder?
- If the height of the cylinder is doubled, how will the volume change?
- What is the relationship between surface area and volume in a cylinder?
- How would the volume change if you halve both the radius and the height?
Tip: The volume of a cylinder is highly sensitive to changes in radius since the radius is squared in the formula. Even small changes in the radius can significantly impact the volume!
