the lateral area of a cylinder is 2πrh

 

so 2πr6=48π and r=4

 

so the volume is 96π

 

CPhill got something different so i'm not sure

Lateral surface area =    2pi *  r * h

 

So

 

48 pi   =   2 pi  * r  *   8

 

48  =   2 *  8  *  r

 

48  = 16  r

 

r =  48  /16     =   3  cm

 

Volume     =    pi * r^2  * h  =

 

pi * 3^2  *  8  =

 

72  pi    cm^3
