The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base, h is the height of the cylinder, and π (pi) is a constant approximately equal to 3.14.
Given that the height (h) of the cylinder is 12cm and the radius (r) is 10cm, we can substitute these values into the formula to find the volume (V):
V = πr^2h
V = π(10cm)^2(12cm)
V = π(100cm^2)(12cm)
V = 1200π cm^3
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 1200π cubic centimeters or approximately 3769.91 cubic centimeters (rounded to two decimal places).
