Vertical distance above mean sea level.
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.
It's the vertical face that runs between the back of one step and the front of the one above it.
Easy! You put the two horizontal one above the other on the left side and the vertical one on the right side. (Technically you can do either side.)
It is zero at the origin, positive above and negative below. Otherwise it can be numbered to any scale.
