Geometry | Volume of a Cylinder

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the volume of a cylinder. It begins by describing the properties of a cylinder, such as having circular ends of equal size and a height. The tutorial then explains the concepts of diameter and radius of a circle, which are essential for calculating the volume. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is given as pi times the radius squared times the height. An example problem is solved, demonstrating how to apply the formula using given dimensions. The tutorial concludes by discussing the importance of using cubic units for volume and suggests leaving the answer in terms of pi for exactness.
