Exercise 8 Page 834

Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder.

665 in^3

Practice makes perfect
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 both the radius and height of the cylinder, we can substitute them into the formula and calculate V.
V=π r^2 h
V=π ( 4.2)^2 ( 7.4)
Simplify right-hand side
V=π(17.64)(12)
V=211.68π
V=665.0123329...
V≈ 665.0
The approximate volume of the given cylinder is 665 in^3.
