Answer: Volume of an oblique cylinder is 2011.43 sq.m.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Radius of a cylinder = 8 meters

Height of a cylinder = 10 meters

Cavelieri's Principle states that volume of an oblique cylinder is same as the volume of right circular cylinder with equal radius and height.

As we know the formula for "Volume of cylinder":

$Volume=\pi r^2h\\\\V=(22)/(7)* 8* 8*10\\\\V=(14080)/(7)\\\\V=2011.43$

Hence, Volume of an oblique cylinder is 2011.43 sq.m.
