  9. Volume of a Circular CylinderThe volume of a circular cylinder of height h and radius r is given by V = πr2h. A cylindrical tank is 15 m tall and has a radius of 8 m. Construct another cylindrical tank with a volume 20 % greater but having the same height. How large must its radius be?Note: π = pi √ = sqrt
