VOLUME OF A CYLINDER
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is the same as the formula for
the volume of a prism. The formula for volume of a cylinder is V = Bh,
where B is the area of the circular base and h is the height of the cylinder.
FORMULAS
V = Bh
B = πr²
V = πr²h
DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION
An orange cylinder is labeled V = Bh. A callout identifies its vertical
height as h. Another callout identifies the circular base area as
B = πr². A dashed radius r is drawn across part of the bottom base.
