The complete question related to this found on (ID: 4049983 and 4265826) is stated below:

A cylinder fits inside a square prism as shown. For every cross section, the ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the square is or πr^2 or π/4. Since the area of the circle is π/4 the area of the square, the volume of the cylinder equals

A) π/2(the volume of the prism) or π/2 (2r)(h) or πrh.

B) π/2 (the volume of the prism) or π/2 (4r2)(h) or 2πrh.

C) π/4(the volume of the prism) or π/4 (2r)(h) or π/4(r2h).

D) π/4(the volume of the prism) or π/4 (4r2)(h) or πr2h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the cross section in the cylinder

Area of circle = πr²

Area of the cross section in the square prism

Area of square = (side length)²

Here the side length = diameter

Diameter = 2×radius = 2r

Area of square = (2r)² = 4r²

Ratio of area of circle to area of square = πr²/4r² = π/4

Area of circle/area of square = π/4

Area of circle = π/4 × area of square

Area of circle = π/4 × 4r²

Volume of cylinder = area of circle × height

Volume = πr² ×h = πr²h

Volume of square prism = area of square × height = (2r)²h = 4r²h

Ratio of volume of cylinder to volume of square prism = πr²h/4r²h = π/4

Volume of cylinder/volume of square prism = π/4

Volume of cylinder = π/4 × volume of square prism = π/4 × 4r²h

= πr²h

Therefore Volume of cylinder = π/4 (the volume of the prism) or π/4 (4r²)(h) or πr²h (D)
