    Hi,
    Would someone be able to help me, I cant seem to find the proper answer anywhere, but how do you find the height of a cylinder when given the radius but not the volume?
    Thanks
    Neil

    That's not possible. If your given a cylinder of a certain radius nothing stopping being any height.

    The question is a mistake I would say.

    Is the radius all you have?

    Is it part of a question where the volume might have been calculated/given earlier?

    You put it flat on the ground radius on ground and at top, then take out your measuring tape and the length will be whatever you measure from ground to top. English answer!!
