Two cylinders are similar. The radius of cylinder a is 5.6 in. The radius of cylinder b is 1.4 in. If the hwight of cylinder b is 4 in what is the height of cylinder a?

Respuesta :

The answer is 16in.

Let the radius and height of cylinder A be Ra and Hb respectively and the radius and height of cylinder B be Rb and Hb respectively.

Using similar shapes:
Ra/Ha= Rb/Hb
5.6/Ha=1.4/4
Ha=(4×5.6)/1.4
Ha=22.4/1.4
Ha=16in

Answer:

The answer is 16n
