V+=+%281%2F3%29pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah To solve for h, divide both sides by %281%2F3%29pi%2Ar%5E2
h+=+V%2F%28%281%2F3%29pi%2Ar%5E2%29 Simplify:
h+=+3V%2F%28pi%2Ar%5E2%29
V+=+%281%2F3%29pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah To solve for r, divide both sides by %281%2F3%29pi%2Ah:
r%5E2+=+V%2F%28%281%2F3%29pi%2Ah%29 Simplify:
r%5E2+=+3V%2F%28pi%2Ah%29 Now take the square root of both sides.
r+=+sqrt%283V%2F%28pi%2Ah%29%29
