V=%28pi%2AR%5E%282%29%2Ah%29%2F3
a.)V=%28pi%2AR%5E%282%29%2Ah%29%2F3
3V=pi%2AR%5E2%2Ah
h=%283V%29%2F%28pi%2AR%5E2%29

b.)V=%28pi%2AR%5E%282%29%2Ah%29%2F3
3V=pi%2AR%5E2%2Ah
R%5E2=%283V%29%2F%28pi%2Ah%29
R=sqrt%28%283V%29%2F%28pi%2Ah%29%29

c.)From b.)
R=sqrt%28%283V%29%2F%28pi%2Ah%29%29
R=sqrt%28%283%281600%29%29%2F%28pi%2A15%29%29
R=10.1
