A cylinder has a base with a radius of 5 cm and a height of 15 cm. What is the volume of the cylinder? (Use π = 3.14.) A. 471 cm3 B. 1177.5 cm3 C. 4710 cm3 D. 235.5 cm3
The formula for volume is [tex]V=\pi r^{2}h[/tex] We plug in: [tex]V=\pi (5)^{2}(15)[/tex] [tex]=\pi (25)(15)[/tex] [tex]=375\pi[/tex] [tex]=375*3.14=1177.5[/tex]
