Exercise 1 Page 593

Recall the formula for the volume of a cylinder, V = π r^2 h.

About 141.4 in.^3

Practice makes perfect

Consider the given a cylinder. The radius of the cylinder is 3inches and the height is 5inches.

The volume of a cylinder with the radius r and height h can be calculated by the following formula. V=Ï€ r^2 h Now, we can substitute them into the formula and calculate V.

V = π r^2 h
V = π ( 3)^2( 5)
V = π (9)(5)
V = π (45)
V = 141.371669...
V ≈ 141.4

The volume of the given cylinder is about 141.4 cubic inches.
