Ratio of two volume cylinders (Geometry)


If two similar cylinders have heights of 75cm and 25cm. What is the
ratio of the volume of the larger cylinder to the volume of the smaller
cylinder? Can someone please explain in detail. Thank you!

Sagot :

V1 = π* ( r1)^2 * 75;
V2 = π* ( r2)^2 * 25;

V1/V2 = (r1/r2)^2 * 3.

Trimidn
The ratio of the lengths is 75 : 25 or 3 : 1 

The ratio of and area is the square of this: ie 9 : 1 or 75^2 : 25^2
(In working out the area the radius is squared)

The ratio of the volumes is the cube of this: ie 27 : 1 or 75^3 : 25^3
(In working out the volume the radius is cubed)

Hopefully this explains it
