<u>Given Data: </u>
Capacity of the Cylinder tank, V = 539 litres =
Height, h = 1.4 m
Area of the Cylinder, A = ?
<u>Convert litres to m³:</u> I litre = 0.001 m3
: . Capacity of the Cylinder tank = 539 litres = 0.539 m³
Let the radius of the base be r cm.
<u>Find the </u><u>radius </u><u>of </u><u>Cylinder</u><u>:</u>
Volume = πr²h
0.539 = πr²(1.4)
0.539 ÷ 1.4π = r²
r² = 0.12255
r = √0.12255
r = 0.35m
<u>Find </u><u>Area </u><u>of </u><u>Base</u><u>:</u>
Area, A = πr²
Area = π(0.35)² = 0.385 m²
<u>Answer:</u> The Area of base is 0.385 m²
