Using Volume Formula For Cylinder To Calculate Volume
I wish to calculate the volume of the cylinder. Can anyone let me know how do I figure-out and fill the values in volume formula for the cylinder?

Hey there, a cylinder, by definition, is a closed solid having two parallel, circular bases which are connected by the curved surface.
Refer the figure below:
The height of the cylinder, usually denoted by ‘h’, is the perpendicular distance between the two circular bases.
The radius of the cylinder, usually denoted by ‘r’, is the circular base’s radius. In case diameter is supplied, you must convert it as follows:
r = d÷2, where “d” is defined as circular base’s diameter.
The formula to calculate the cylinder’s volume, denoted by ‘V’, is:
V=〖πr〗^2 h, where π(read as ‘pi’) nearly equals to 3.142
