Find the volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 10 inches and a heigth of 20 inches

Lets find the volume of a cylinder with a diameter D=10 inches and lenght L = 20 inches. First we need to notice that the diameter is twice the size of the radius: D=2r. Then we write the equation for the volume of the cylinder. it is the base times the height: V=pi*r^2 * L. Now we input the nubmers in the equation: V=3.14 * (D/2) ^2 * L where r=D/2=5 inches and after calculating we get: V=1570 inches^3

So first, the formula is pi*r^2*h. The radius is 5 inches so do 3.14*5*5*20. If you do this, the answer is 1,570 cubic inches.
