Question:
The volume of a cylinder which exactly fits in a cube of side a is
__________.
Solution:
πa3 /4
Explanation:
When the cylinder exactly fits in the cube of side “a”, the height equals to the edges of the cube and the radius equal to half the edges of a cube.
It means that,
h = a,and r = a/2
Then the volume of a cylinder be = πr2h
= π(a/2)2(a)
= πa3/4
