The volumeof a three-dimensional object is a measure of the space occupied by the object.
For example, we would need to know the volume of a gasoline tank in order to find how many
gallons of gasoline it would take to completely fill the tank.
In the following exercises, a formula for the volume (V) of a three-dimensional object is
given, along with values for the other variables. Evaluate V. (Use 3.14as an approximation
for .) p See Example 1.

S= 2 prh; S= 120 p, h= 10 S= 2 prh; S= 720 p, h= 30
