Formula for volume of cylinder=
\n" ); document.write( "Pi*r^2*h
\n" ); document.write( "Vol = Pi*r^2 *h
\n" ); document.write( "462 = Pi*r^2*8
\n" ); document.write( "r^2 = 462/Pi*8
\n" ); document.write( "r^2 = 18.38
\n" ); document.write( "r = square root of 18.38
\n" ); document.write( "r = 4.29 inches
\n" ); document.write( "diameter = 8.57 inches.
