Question 110277: A cylinder has a radius of 5 in. If the volume of the cylinder is 250 in.3. What is the height of the cylinder? (Hint: The volume of a cylinder is give by v = r2h.)
There is a square symbol that I cannot recreate that is after the 250 and before in. The 3 is a superscript and there was a square symbol between v = and 42h. Also the 2 is a superscript.
I hope you can help me even though I can't create the problem accurately. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A cylinder has a radius of 5 in. If the volume of the cylinder is 250 in.3. What is the height of the cylinder? (Hint: The volume of a cylinder is give by v = r2h.)
----------------
Formula: Volume = Bh, where B is the base of the cylinder = (pi)r^2 and h is height.
----------------
Your Problem:
Substitute to solve for the height
250 cu.in = (pi)(5^2) h
h = 250/(25pi) in
h = 3.1831 in
