Volume of Right Cylinder
<p><a href="https://www.prepswift.com/quizzes/quiz/prepswift-volume-of-right-cylinder" target="_blank">Volume of Right Cylinder Exercise</a></p><p>The easiest way, in my view, to picture the <strong><span style="color:#8e44ad;">Volume of a Right Cylinder</span></strong> is to imagine you have the area of a flat circle ($\pi r^2$) stacked on top of itself to a certain height, $h$.</p>
