The Volume of a Right Cylinder is simply the volume of a circular prism. By 'right' I mean that the congruent top is directly above the base (with the radius of the circular base being at 90 degrees to the VERTICAL height). If the cylinder is oblique (where the top circle is NOT directly above the base) then the VERTICAL height must still be found first! The volume of ANY right prism is found by multiplying it's cross-sectional area by it's length (or height - depending upon whether it's lying 'flat' on a horizontal surface or is standing upright, etc..) Volume = Area of circular 'end/ base' * it's vertical height. (Note: The area of it's circular base is : pi * R^2 (R = radius of the circle) ). STEVE EASTOP.
