The formula v = bh, where b represents the area of the base, can be used to find the volume of a cylinder. which formula is equivalent to v = bh when finding the cylinder's volume?

a)
v = (l · w)

b)
v = (l · w · h)

c)
v = πr2h

d)
v = 2πr

ANSWER

C) V=πr²h

EXPLANATION

The formula for calculating the volume of a prism is



where B represents the area of the base and h represents the height of the prism.

A cylinder is a prism with a circular base.

Therefore area of the base is



Therefore the volume of the cylinder is



The correct choice is C.
