A cylinder has a height of 1 meter and a radius of 2 meters. What is its volume? Use л≈
3.14 and round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
cubic meters

Verified Answer :

To find the volume of a cylinder, we use the formula:

\(\[ \text{Volume} = \pi \times \text{radius}^2 \times \text{height} \]\)

Given the specific values:
- Height (\(\( h \)\)) = 1 meter
- Radius (\(\( r \)\)) = 2 meters
- \(\[ \pi \approx 3.14 \]\)

Let's go through the calculation step-by-step.

1. Square the Radius:
\(\[ \text{radius}^2 = 2^2 = 4 \]\)

2. Multiply by Pi:
\(\[ \pi \times 4 \approx 3.14 \times 4 = 12.56 \]\)

3. Multiply by the Height:
\(\[ 12.56 \times 1 = 12.56 \]\)

So, the volume of the cylinder is approximately \(\( 12.56 \)\) cubic meters.

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is \(\( \boxed{12.56} \)\) cubic meters.
