How do you find the diameter of a cylinder when the lateral area is given?
Given only the lateral area, you cannot determine the diameter.
Can you find the exact measurement of a cylinder?
What do you mean by "exact measurement"? Do you wish to determine the cylinder's height? Its diameter? Its surface area? Its volume?
Why is the volume pi r h for a cylinder?
pi r^2 h is used to determine the volume of a cylinder because when determing the area of a shape you first have to determine the area of the the base of the object and then multiply it by the height. The base of a cylinder is a circle and to find the area of a circle you use pi r^2 and hence the reason why pi r^2 is used to find the volume of the cylinder.
What is the area of a segment?
a line segment has no area. By definition a line segment is a part of a line, thus it has no area
What is the radius and height of cylinder with a surface area of 32 square feet?
The surface area does not provide enough information to determine the dimensions of the cylinder. It could be a tall thin cylinder or a squat one. It is possible for two such to have the same surface area but vastly different volumes.
What is the area of a cylinder's base if the radius is r?
A cylinder is a tree-dimensional figure with two parallel bases bounded by congruent circles and a curved lateral surface that connects the circles. The height, h, of a cylinder is the length of any perpendicular segment drawn from a point on the base to the plane containing the other base. A cylinder is a right cylinder if the segment joining the centers of the bases is perpendicular to the planes of the bases. Otherwise, the cylinder is oblique. If a right cylinder has a height h and a base with radius r, then the lateral area L.A. is given by the formula: L.A. = 2(pi)(r)(h) The surface area S.A. is given by the formula: S.A. = L.A. + 2(pi)(r^2). Thus, the area of the cylinder's base is (pi)(r^2).
How do you determine cubic foot in a cylinder?
Area of base X height Area of base is pi X r2 r is radius pi = 3.1416
What is the volume of a Right Cylinder?
The volume, V, of a cylinder with base of radius r is the product of the area, B, of a base and the height, h, of the cylinder.V = Bh or V = (pi)(r^2)h(A cylinder is a right cylinder if the segment joining the centers of the bases is perpendicular to the planes of the bases. Otherwise the cylinder is oblique.)
Cubic feet in a cylinder?
Your question is unanswerable, as asked, but you can easily calculate the volume of a cylinder once you know its size. To determine the volume of a cylinder, you need to find the area of the circle, and then multiply that by the height of the cylinder. (Pi X Radius squared X height) Good luck.
What is the formula for circle segment?
The answer will depend on what the formula is for: the perimeter or area of the segment.
What is a segment has endpoints?
A segment is the area within a circle enclosed by an arc and a chord
How do you derive of surface area of cylinder?
The surface area of a cylinder can be derived from the area of rectangle. If you 'unroll' a cylinder you have a shape of a rectangle, similar to a sheet of paper. The width of the rectangle will be the height of the cylinder and the length of the rectangle will be the circumference of the cylinder end.So, Area = length * widthwhere, width = height of cylinder & length = circumference of cylinder end = PI*(Diameter of cylinder)Therefore,surface area of a cylinder = (PI)*(diameter of cylinder)*(height of cylinder)Hope that helps!
