Answer :

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{r=3cm}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula;

[tex]V=\pi \time r^2 h[/tex]


It was given that the volume of the cylinder, [tex]V=108\pi[/tex], and its height, [tex]h=12cm[/tex]


We substitute the given values into the formula to obtain;


[tex]108\pi=\pi\times r^2\times 12[/tex]


We divide through by [tex]12\pi[/tex] to obtain;


[tex]\frac{108\pi}{12\pi}=r^2[/tex]


[tex]\Rightarrow 9=r^2[/tex]


We take the positive square root of both sides to obtain;

[tex]\Rightarrow \sqrt{9}=r[/tex]


[tex]3=r[/tex]


[tex]r=3cm[/tex]


Therefore the length of the cylinder's radius is 3cm.



Answer:

the radius is 3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by

V = pi *r^2 h

We know the volume = 108 *pi  and the height = 12

Substituting into the equation

108 * pi = pi * r^2 * 12

Divide each side by pi

108 * pi/pi = pi/pi * r^2 * 12

108  =   r^2 * 12

Divide each side by 12

108/12 = r^2*12/12

9 = r^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(9) = sqrt(r^2)

3 = r
