The volume of a right circular cylinder is 180 cm3, the area of its base is 30 cm2 and the height is 6 cm then, find the diameter of the cylinder is (in cm):
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. .
Base area = 30 cm2
⇒ πr2 = 30
here r = radius
The volume of a cylinder = πr2h
⇒ πr2h = 180
⇒ πr2 × 6 = 180
⇒ πr2 = 30
⇒ r2 = 30/π
⇒ r =
Diameter = 2r =
