ANSWER: V = π r2h
V = 3.14 (2 inches)2 x 12 inches
V = 3.14 x 4 x 12
V = 150.72 cubic inches
If you had any difficulty with the first two volume problems, go back and
recheck the rules of the basic formula.
SOLVE THE FOLLOWING:
(1) How many cubic inches are there in a cylindrical bucket if the diameter of
the base is 8 inches and the height is 8 inches. (Round off your answer to the
nearest cubic inch.)
V =
(2) Use π = 3.14 to find the volume of the cylindrical storage tanks having these
measurements:
Radius
Height
(a) r = 10 feet
h = l0 feet
(b) r = 5 feet
h = 3 yards
(c) r = 4 inches
h = 3 feet
