Problema Solution
The cottage has a round pool. If the diameter of the pool is 24 feet and the pool is 5 feet deep, find the volume of the pool in cubic feet.
Answer provided by our tutors
We need to find the volume of a cylinder with diameter of 24 ft and height of 5 ft:
d = 24 ft
r = d/2 = 24/2 = 12 ft
H = 5 ft
V = r^2*pi*H
V = 12^2*pi*5
V = 720pi
V = 2260.8 ft^3
The volume of the pools is 2260.8 cubic feet.
