If the cylinder above is similar to a second cylinder that has a radius of 10mm, what is the height of the second cylinder

Respuesta :

Answer:

The height of the second cylinder is 30mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cylinder 1:

[tex]R = 15mm[/tex]

[tex]H = 45mm[/tex]

Cylinder 2

[tex]r = 10mm[/tex]

See attachment

Required

Determine h, the height of the small one

To do this, we make use of the following equivalent ratios;

[tex]R : H = r : h[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]15 : 45 = 10 : h[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{15 }{ 45 }= \frac{10 }{ h}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\frac{1 }{ 3}= \frac{10 }{ h}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]h *1 = 3 * 10[/tex]

[tex]h = 30[/tex]
