    It is given that both Cylinders A and B are congruent, thus, Cylinder B also has a radius of 4 centimeters. We now have the volume and the radius, which we will use to get the height of Cylinder B.

    r = 4cm

    V = 176π cubic cm

    From the formula Volume of a cylinder, we can derive a formula to get the height.

    From V = πr^2

    to h = V/πr^2

    h = 176π cubic cm / π (4cm) ^2

    We can just eliminate the π since it is both in the denominator and numerator.

    h = 176 cubic cm / (4cm) ^2

    h = 176 cubic cm / 16cm^2

    h = 11cm

    The height of Cylinder B is 11cm.
