We are given the following cylinder and we want to find the value of its volume.
The volume of a cylinder with the radius r and height h can be calculated by the following formula.
V=π r^2 h
Since we are given the diameter of the cylinder, we know that the radius of the cylinder is the half of the diameter.
r = diameter/2 ⇒ r=8/2=4
Here, we find that r=4 centimeters and we are given the height h=16 centimeters. Now we can substitute them into the formula and calculate V.
