how do you find the radius of a cylinder

If we know the Volume, we can solve for the radius

V = pi X r^2 * h     divide both sides by pi * h

V /( pi * h) = r^2     take the positive square root of both sides

√[V /( pi * h) ]  = r

If we know the lateral surface area......we can do this

Sa = 2*pi*r * h     divide both sides by 2* pi *h

(Sa) / [ 1 * pi *h]   = r

What information do you already have about the cylinder?

the formula is

radius = the square root of Volume divided by pi x height

i think... sorry if im wrong im only in algebra 1-2

They were asking for radius not volume, so I was confused. If they only have the volume, then the problem can't be answered.

Yes, but you need to know the height.

i need the hight

I was assuming that we knew everything but the radius.......

Can you give us all the information you have (like the actual problem)?
