Here, if you notice, the first tumbler is full of water. That is the capacity of the tumbler. In
the second and third tumblers, the volume of water is less than the capacity of the tumbler.

1.1 Volume of cylinder
Example 1: Radius
Find the volume of a cylinder whose radius is
5 cm and height is 28 cm.
Solution:
Given: Radius of the cylinder = r = 5 cm
Using formula
V= h
= 2200

A water glass has the shape of a right cylinder. The glass
has an interior radius of 2.1 inches, and a height of 6
inches. The glass is 75% full. What is the volume of the
water in the glass (in cubic inches)?
Solution:
Given: Interior radius of the glass = r = 2.1
inches.
Height of the glass = h = 6 inches

SOLVE PROBLEMS INVOLVING SURFACE AREA AND VOLUME
Key Concepts Covered:
A cylinder is a type of prism. To calculate the volume of a prism, multiply the area of the base
by its height
While solving The volume, V, of a cylinder of radius r and height h is given by the formula V =
Since the formula of volume of a cylinder contains three variables V, r and h we can calculate the
height or radius of a cylinder if we are given the volume and one of the two other measurements.
Volume of a cylinder = V =
While solving questions check whether you are given the radius or the diameter of the cylinder
