Find the volume of a circular prism with radius 1.7 cm and height 2.8 cm. (Use pi = 3.14)
19.84 cm3
25.41 cm3
29.62 cm3
31.98 cm3
Volume = pi * r^2 * h = 3.14 * (1.7)^2 * 2.8 = 3.14 * 2.89 * 2.8 = 25.40864, which rounds to 25.41.
A circular prism is geometrically identical to a cylinder, so its volume is calculated as pi times the square of the radius times the height. Substituting the given values into the formula results in 3.14 multiplied by 1.7 cm squared multiplied by 2.8 cm. Multiplying 1.7 squared, which is 2.89, by 2.8 and then by 3.14 gives a total volume of 25.41 cubic cm.
