Answer:

The length of the ladder is 30 fit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Diameter = 20 fit

Radius = 20/2 = 10 fit

Volume of cylinder = 9420 cubic fit

Find: If the length of the ladder is equal to the height of the water

tank, how long is the ladder.

Formula Volume of cylinder = \pi r^2h

\frac{22}{7} (10)^2 h = 9420\\\frac{22}{7} (100)  h = 9420\\frac{2200}{7} h = 9420\\h = 9420 \times \frac{7}{2200}\\= 4.28 \tiems 7\\= 29.68

≈ 30 ft

So, height of water tank = 30 ft.

If the length of the ladder is equal to the height of the water tank.

So,  the length of the ladder is 30 fit.
