Question

A museum there is a sculpture in the shape of a cylinder. The cylinder has a diameter of 36 feet and a height of h feet. Which equation can be used to find V, the volume of the cylinder in cubic feet?
Group of answer choices
A π (36)2h

B π (36h)2

C π (18)2h

D π (18h)2

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The cylinder has a diameter of 36 feet and a height of h feet.

To find: volume of the cylinder in cubic feet

Solution:

Diameter of a cylinder = 36 feet

Radius of a cylinder = Radius ÷ 2

                                 $=\frac{36}{2} =18$ feet

Height of a cylinder = h feet

Volume of a cylinder = $\pi r^2h$

Put $r=18$ feet

Therefore,

Volume of a cylinder = $\pi (18)^2h$ cubic feet

So, option C is correct.
