Its pitcher is shaped like a cylinder with a radius of 1 centimeter and a height of 7.8 cm. What's this pitcher plant's approximate volume?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The pitcher plant's approximate volume is 24.492 [tex]\text{cm}^{3}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a  pitcher is shaped like a cylinder with a radius of 1 centimeter and a height of 7.8 cm.

Let the radius of a cylinder = r = 1 cm

and the height of a cylinder = h = 7.8 cm

As we know that the volume of a cylinder is given by;

The volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi r^{2}h[/tex]

                           = [tex]3.14 \times 1^{2} \times 7.8[/tex]  {taking approximate value of [tex]\pi[/tex] to be 3.14}

                           = [tex]3.14 \times 7.8[/tex]

                           = 24.492 [tex]\text{cm}^{3}[/tex]

Hence, this pitcher plant's approximate volume is 24.492 [tex]\text{cm}^{3}[/tex].
