How to find the volume of a cylinder

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the volume of a cylinder. It begins by identifying the need to find the area of the base, which is a circle, using the formula πR². The tutorial then applies the volume formula, which is the base area multiplied by the height of the cylinder. With a given radius of 5 and height of 15, the calculation is performed, resulting in a volume of 1178.10 cubic yards, rounded to the nearest tenth.

What is the formula for the volume of a cylinder?

• Volume = π * radius * height

• Volume = area of base * height

• Volume = 2 * π * radius * height

• Volume = π * radius^2 * height

How do you calculate the area of a circle?

• Area = π * diameter

• Area = 2 * π * radius

• Area = π * radius * height

• Area = π * radius^2
