Finding the Volume of a Cylinder
This article will guide you through calculating the volume of a cylinder with a height of 154 inches and a radius of 3 inches.
Understanding the Formula
The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the following formula:
Volume (V) = π * r² * h
Where:
- π (pi) is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159
- r is the radius of the cylinder's base
- h is the height of the cylinder
Applying the Formula
-
Identify the given values:
- Height (h) = 154 inches
- Radius (r) = 3 inches
-
Substitute the values into the formula:
- V = π * (3 inches)² * 154 inches
-
Calculate the volume:
- V = 3.14159 * 9 inches² * 154 inches
- V ≈ 4346.24 cubic inches
Conclusion
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder with a height of 154 inches and a radius of 3 inches is approximately 4346.24 cubic inches.
