What is the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and a height of 5 cm?

Back

Using the formula V = πr²h, the volume is V = π(3 cm)²(5 cm) = 45π cm³ or approximately 141.37 cm³.

If a pyramid has a square base with a side length of 4 m and a height of 9 m, what is its volume?

Back

Using the formula V = (1/3)Bh, where B = 4 m * 4 m = 16 m², the volume is V = (1/3)(16 m²)(9 m) = 48 m³.
