This section details the formula for finding the volume of a cylinder, emphasizing the relationship between the cylinder's base area and its height, and illustrating the calculation through examples. The importance of distinguishing between volume and capacity is also covered.
The volume of a cylinder is mathematically determined by the formula: Volume = ΟrΒ²h, where r represents the radius of the circular base, and h signifies the height of the cylinder. This section builds upon the foundational concept of calculating volume by recognizing that a cylinder, much like a cuboid, has a base that is congruent and parallel to its top. Volume can be visualized as the amount of space occupied within the cylinder, measured through cubic units, which is a shift from the square units used to calculate area. Understanding the volume of three-dimensional shapes, including cylinders, is vital for practical applications such as determining storage capacity. Additionally, the differences between volume and capacity are clarified, with capacity referring more specifically to the quantity held by a container, measured regularly in litres.

Volume formula of a cylinder (V = ΟrΒ²h): Understanding how to calculate the volume based on base area and height.
Distinction between volume and capacity: Recognizing that volume refers to the space inside the object, while capacity refers to how much the object can hold.
To find volume of cylindrical shapes, just take the radius, twice its grace. Square it up, then multiply by height, Ο will make your answer bright!
Imagine a cylindrical cake. To know how much icing you need, find its volume using the base's area and the height! Thatβs how much frosting goes all around it.
V = Οr squared h; think 'Volume is Pie, Radius is squared and Height just stands by'.
Example: Calculate the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 3 cm and height of 5 cm.
Example: Determine the height of a cylinder if its volume is known (e.g., Volume = 500 cmΒ³, Radius = 5 cm).
