i need help understand my math so when finding the volume of a cylinder with a 10 inches in diameter and a 10 inches high while using this formula V=3.1.4*r^2*h why is there a five should it not be 10

V=3.1.4*5^2*10

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is the area of the circle times the hight of the cylinder.

Thus...

3.14*5^2*10=785

The reason it is 5 and not 10 is because it gives you the diameter in the word problem and the equation asks for the radius.

So you know that the radius is always half the diameter and half 10 which gives you 5.

Hope this helps!!!
