Problema Solution

A cylindrical column has a circumference 10 ft and height 20 ft. Find it's volume. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer provided by our tutors

circumference = 2*pi*r = 10 ft

h = 20 ft

V = pi*(r^2)*h

 

c = 2*pi*r = 10

r = 10/(2*pi) = 1.59

 

V = pi*(1.59^2)*20 = 158.85 cubic feet
