Question

If a cylinder has a volume of 1884 cubic centimeters and a height of six cm, explain how to find the radius of the base circle. (Hint: Work backwards and remember that r-squared means r x r.)

Response:

Answer 1

Explanation:

The formulas to find the radius are quite simple. If you know the diameter of the circle, use this formula:

If you don't know the diameter, but you know the circumference, you can use this equation:

If you know the area of the circle, use this equation:

Note that the area of a circle is essentially the total space, measured in square units, inside of the perimeter of a circle.
