Best Answer

The height of a cylinder is equal to the area of its base (i.e. the area of the circle that makes up its base) multiplied by its height (h).

Area of a circle = (pi)r2 Where pi equals approximately 3.142 and r represents the circle's radius.

Taken together the formula for the height of a cylinder is (pi)r2h.

Further answer

Sorry, but the above is not correct. You'll notice that the formula for the height of a cylinder itself contains the height (h). So you're saying that you can only calculate the height when you know the height! In fact the question cannot be answered

without having more information. The volume and the diameter would be a start.
