Find the volume of the cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

716.75 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder:

=> PI x R^2 x H

H = Height

R = Radius

=> PI x 3.9^2 x 15

=> PI x 15.21 x 15

=> PI x 228.15

=> 228.15 PI

           or

=> 228.15 x 3.14159

=> 716.75 m^3

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
