Volume of a Cylinder

The volume of a Cylinder can be expressed as in the following formula;

…where r is that radius and h is the height

You might have noticed that finding the volume for this type of shape consists of the area of a shape, that shape of the cylinder on one side and then multiplied by the height of the cylinder.

Example

Find the volume of a cylindrical object with radius 9 cm and height 24 cm.

We know that;

V = πr2h

that means…

V = π x 92 x 24

This gives the volume of the Cylinder equal to 6107.26 cm3

It is that easy to find the volume of the Cylinder!
