The volume V of a cylinder with radius r is the area of the base B (circle) times the height h . That is:
[tex]V=r^2\pi h[/tex]
In our case, we have that r = 8 in and h= 17 in. Then, we have that the volume of the cylinder would be
[tex]V=r^2\pi h=(8)^2\pi(17)\text{ = }1088\pi\text{ }\approx3418,05[/tex]
Then, we can conclude that the volume of the cylinder would be
3418,05 in^3
