Use the positive x axis for radius and the positive y axis for height.
. The description is of the cross section through the middle of the cylinder. This cross section uses a circle . You can reform the volume either in terms of x or in terms of y.
Two choices. Use a graphing tool or try derivative of V and maybe then resort to a graphing tool. Where is derivative equal to zero? Corresponding x? Corresponding volume?
