Algebra.Com's Answer #399306 by KMST(5328)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Doubling the radius increases the volume more. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Doubling the height (h), while keeping the same base with area A, will double the volume: \n" ); document.write( "V=A*h \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Doubling the radius (r), will quadruple the area ( \n" ); document.write( "If the radius changes to 2r, the area quadruples to \n" ); document.write( "Doubling the radius (with the same height) will quadruple the area of the base, quadrupling the volume of the cylinder. \n" ); document.write( " |
