Question

Cylinder A has a volume of 360 cm3. Cylinder B has a base and height identical to that of the cylinder B, but it is the right in such a way that its slant length is greater by 4 cm. What is the volume of cylinder B?

Answer 1

The volume of cylinder can be calculated using formula

$V_{cylinder}=A_{base}\cdot H,$ where $A_{base}$ is the area of the base and H is the height of a cylinder.

If Cylinder B has a base and height identical to that of the cylinder A, then the area of a base of cylinder B is the same as the area of cylinder A and the height of cylinder B is the same as the height of cylinder A. Therefore, the volume of cylinder B is the same as the volume of cylinder A that is 360 cubic cm.

Answer: option B.

Answer 2

Answer:

360 cm$^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, one cylinder is right and the other cylinder is oblique or slanted.

In geometrical context, an object which is distorted so that it seems to lean over at a certain angle, in comparison to being completely upright is called an oblique object. While the right objects are exactly upright.

Since both the cylinders have the same base and height, so their volume is not affected by the lean of the cylinder B.

Therefore, cylinder B has the same volume as cylinder A i.e. 360 cm$^{3}$.
