Volume of a Cylinder WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet provides focused practice on finding the volume of a cylinder.
Learners are given a reminder of how to calculate the area of a circle when provided with a radius or a diameter in section A. Here students will give answers to three significant figures and in terms of pi.
Then, in section B students will find the volume of 8 different cylinders. Again, students are given either a radius or a diameter of the cross section and are asked to write their answers in 2 decimal places or in terms of pi.
The challenge is ramped up in section C. Here pupils are faced with 6 problem solving questions such as, finding the height or radius of the cylinder when provided the volume.
