A cylinder with radius 5 units is shown below. Its volume is 157 cubic units. Find the height of the cylinder.

To find the volume of a cylinder you use the formula v=pi * (radius*radius) * height

So you plug in the values to solve for h (height) to get

157=pi * (5*5) * h

After that you just solve the equation to get

157=pi * (25) * h

157=25pi*h

157/25pi=h

1.998986085=h

Answer: 2 units

Explanation:

Volume = π r² h

157 = π (5) ² h

h = 157 : 25π

h = 2 units.
