What is the radius of the base of the cylinder below? A cylinder with height of 36 inches and diameter of 42 inches.

Answer :

Answer:  21  inches

The diameter is 42, so you cut this in half to get 21. The height of 36 does not affect the diameter or radius, so we can ignore it.

The radius of the base of the cylinder is 21 inches

Radius and Diameter:

  • The diameter is twice the length of the radius.
  • Diameter Formula = 2 × Radius
  • Radius (r)= Diameter(d)/2

How to solve this Problem?

The steps are as follows:

Diameter=42 inches

Radius=Diameter/2

=42/2

=21 inches

The Radius does not depend on height of cylinder i.e, Radius is independent of height.
