Depth and height are the same thing. Height is looking from the bottom and depth from the top
\n" ); document.write( "V=pi*r^2*h
\n" ); document.write( "V==pi*3^2*5 volume of water at 5 ft deep.
\n" ); document.write( "V=pi*9*5
\n" ); document.write( "V=45*pi
\n" ); document.write( "pi=about 3.14
\n" ); document.write( "radius =1/2 diameter
\n" ); document.write( "Why didn't we use 8 ft for the height ?
\n" ); document.write( "We didn't fill the tank all the way but only to 5 ft.
\n" ); document.write( "
