The formula for the volume of a cylinder is:
**V = πr²h**
- **V**: Volume of the cylinder
- **π**: Pi (approximately 3.14159)
- **r**: Radius of the base of the cylinder
- **h**: Height of the cylinder
To calculate the volume of a cylinder, you square the radius of the base, multiply it by the height of the cylinder, and then multiply by pi (π) to get the final volume. This formula represents the relationship between the base area (πr²) and the height (h) to determine the total volume of the cylinder.
