Example Question #7 : How To Find The Volume Of A Cylinder
What is the volume of a cylinder with a circular side with a radius of and a length of ?
To find the volume of a cylinder we must know the equation for the volume of a cylinder which is
In this example the length is and the radius is so our equation will look like this
We then square the to get
Then perform multiplication to get
The answer is .
Example Question #11 : Cylinders
The volume of a cylinder is units cubed. If the cylinder's height is units, what is its radius?
units

units
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is , where is volume, is the radius of the cylinder, and is its height. Substituing the given information into this equation makes it possible to find the radius by solving for :
units
Example Question #651 : Geometry
This figure is a right cylinder with radius of 2 m and a height of 10 m.
What is the volume of the right cylinder (m3)?
The formula for the volume of a right cylinder is where is the radius and is the height. Thus for this problem
Example Question #21 : Cylinders
What is the volume of a cylinder with a radius of and a height of ?
When thinking of a 3D figure, think of it as a stack of something. In this case, a cylinder is a stack of a circles.
The volume will be the area of that base circle times the height of the cylinder. Mathematically that would be .
Plug in our given values and solve.
Example Question #117 : Solid Geometry
Find the volume of a cylinder given that its height and radius are 4 and 11, respectively.
The standard equation to find the volume of a cylinder is
where denotes height and denotes radius.
Plug in the given values for height and radius to find the volume of the cylinder:

Find the volume of the following partial cylinder.
The formula for the volume of a partial cylinder is:
Where is the radius of the cylinder, is the height of the cylinder, and is the degrees of the sector.
Plugging in our values, we get:
Example Question #21 : Cylinders
Find the volume of the following partial cylinder.
The formula for the volume of a partial cylinder is:
where is the radius of the cylinder, is the height of the cylinder, and is the degrees of the sector.
Plugging in our values, we get:
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Volume Of A Cylinder
If a cylinder has a radius, , of 2 inches and a height, , of 5 inches, what is the total surface area of the cylinder?
The total surface area will be equal to the area of the two bases added to the area of the outer surface of the cylinder. If "unwrapped" the area of the outer surface is simply a rectangle with the height of the cylinder and a base equal to the circumference of the cylinder base. We can use these relationships to find a formula for the total area of the cylinder.
Use the given radius and height to solve for the final area.
