Question

Diameter of cylinder A is 9 cm, and the height is 22 cm. Diameter of cylinder B is 22 cm and height is 9 cm. Find the cylinder which has the greatest volume.

Answer 1

Answer:

Cylinder A

D = 9cm

r = 9/2= 4.5cm

H= 22 cm

Volume of cylinder =

$\pi {r}^{2} h$

22/7 × 4.5 × 4.5 × 22

1400.14 cm^2

CYLINDER B

D = 22cm

r = 11cm

H = 9cm

volume of cylinder=

$\pi {r}^{2} h$

22/7 × 11 × 11 × 9

3422.57 cm^2

SO THE VOLUME OF CYLINDER B is greater than Cylinder A by 2022.43
